Cool.  You picked the most powerful passport on the planet.

Now, look at the restriction on the "basic freedom" to travel for German passport holders.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_requirements_for_German_citizens

Governments have a right to restrict which foreign countries their citizens go to.  That's why they have to ask their governments for permission to travel to certain places.  It's universal since NO COUNTRY recognizes a "basic freedom" for their citizens to travel to ANYWHERE they want.  There is no such thing.

Do you seriously not understand the difference between other countries restricting you to travel (asking for a visa) and your own country restricting you????? 

 

Also, the US calls itself the land of freedom, so yes, I expect it to live up to the name and not restrict where its citizens can vacation.

I understand the difference.  You don't seem to understand things.  German citizens do need their government's permission to go to certain places.

You can expect what ever you want, the world does not bend to your wills or thoughts.  It's delusional of you to think that anyone has a "basic freedom" to go whereever they want without their government making restrictions.  Ever wonder why people have to get a passport to leave their country to travel internationally?  If there was a basic freedom to go whereever I want, then why do I need to ask my government for a passport?  

You are mistaken your feelings of entitlement  to do whatever you want because you think freedom is absolute versus the reality and power of governments over their citizens' foreign travels and lives.
