However, the premise in the paragraph that begins on line 39 according to my text is that the loss of freedom is not beneficial to anyone and that it causes pain and suffering to anyone.
Explanation:
On line 39 Reagan talks about the experience that a friend of his, a Cuban refugee, had to face because of the country's lack of freedom. he had to flee from Cuba, even though he was a successful businessman. Some people reported that he was lucky to be able to leave the country and he even agrees, because he had this option, although many of his fellow citizens do not.
Reagan uses this story to show how the lack of freedom is harmful to anyone, regardless of their social position or their ability to escape. The lack of freedom is harmful for that reason, it cannot be allowed in America.
