Freedom is a state of mind, not a material or financial condition. You know nothing of my consciousness, nor could you. Look into your own self and ask if you are free.

True that freedom of mind is what most people lack. But I would add that freedom of mind is a big first step, but not the final goal. You also need freedom of body, which includes material and financial condition. Without freedom of body, the mind is stuck in that body and its conditions.
Sure, gravity is also unfreedom of body, but first let's get rid of unfreedom of mind, then unfreedom of body from other people, and then perhaps we will do something about the gravity.
