We don't need such a phrase. The word we need is "freedom".
It's also handy to be able to point out when an argument has an
undistributed middle term:
All Nazis practise eugenics.
Lee practises eugenics.
Therefore: Lee is a Nazi.
Oh, of coooooooooourse. (Even if the word "eugenics" were used without
equivocation (and it isn't), the argument would obviously be stuffed.)
