You didn't respond to what I said. When enough people make a large mistake, the effects go beyond just the individuals. At that point, it's no longer a "personal choice," it's damaging to the whole.

I do not believe the state (or anyone else) can determine what’s best for everyone. Such a thing is not possible and instead is used as cover to remove personal freedom.
