[ QUOTE ]
A person's ability to pursue there chosen life plans and access to necessary resources should not depend on the arbitrary preferences of others,

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, they absolutely should, if the "resource" in question happens to be the labor of the "others" who have their own arbitrary opinions about who they want to work for.

[ QUOTE ]
To allow freedom to depend on that is collectivist i.e. anti-individualist (certain individuals have difficulty pursuing there life goals because of what the collectivity thinks of them) and inegalitarian.

[/ QUOTE ]
You don't have free access to my labor -- that should be a given. If you're defining "freedom" to be universal access to some individual's labor (labor that is not based on voluntary agreement, but based on law), you've just legitimatized slavery.
