Why is it important for indaviduals to have freedom of speech and thought? It is important to have freedom of speech and thought because that's how we invent things. For people to say what's on thier mind is great and that's how we have all of the electronics like dishwasher, drier, washer,and TV. If Benjamen Fraklin wouldn't have spoke his mind we would not have electricity. Freedom of speech is important too. If we didn't have the freedom to talk we wouldn't have laws and the world we be a mess.
