Free Will

      In the end of chapter four, one of the Tralfamadorian was talking to Billy about this thing we call free will. Billy seems baffled that there is no other talk about free will. On earth Billy thought there was free will but is starting to wondering about free will and what it really meant.

"I would n't have any idea what was meant by 'free will'. I've visited thirty-one inhabited plants in the universe, and I have studied reports on one hundred more. Only on earth is there any talk of free will.(pg.86)"

Billy doesn't go into this any further but I think he wants to believe in free will so everything that has happen to him seems more important. So do u thing that as human we have free will, or are most of your decision swayed by other people. What is free will, and why does it not exist in any other plant?
