Presidential Medal of Freedom

An award bestowed by the president of the United States to recognize people who have made "an especially meritorious contribution to the security or national interests of the United States, world peace, cultural or other significant public or private endeavors". The Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal are the highest civilian awards of the United States. The award is not limited to U.S. citizens and, while it is a civilian award, it can also be awarded to military personnel and worn on the uniform. It was established in 1963 by President John F. Kennedy, superseding the Medal of Freedom that was established by President Harry S. Truman in 1945 to honor civilian service during World War II.
In the picture below, Vice President Joe Biden earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2017 with distinction.

freedom of warship

Da constitutional right dat allows you to board any of our nation's naval battlewagons whenever and however you please.
In the first Casey Ryback film "Under Siege", mercenary William Strannix takes the whole "freedom of warship" to a preposterous degree --- perhaps he did indeed have the right to go aboard the USS Missouri, but that didn't entitle him to take over the ship or harm the crewmembers.

amazon freedom

a status of having enough income or wealth such that you don't have to check your bank account before making small purchases on Amazon, but you still have to work for a living because you don't have financial freedom.
My goal in life is to have Amazon freedom. Sure, financial freedom is better, but I feel that Amazon freedom is within my reach.
