It can certainly be successfully argued that more laws does give you more freedom when you look at it from a group perspective over an individual perspective. When there are no laws, only the strongest have freedom. With lots of laws, freedom is spread among the many. That is why we accept the creation of governments in the first place. To protect the many who are weaker from the few who are stronger. The terms weak and strong don't really do the idea proper justice, but it does advance the proper desired perspective.
