> Do we also allow people to seek rotten meat, ineffective medications, or not wearing seatbelts? For the first two, we definitely do. No one says you can't let your meat rot before you eat it, and certain forms of rotten food are cultural delicacies. Most groceries have aisles full of ineffective junk medicine. Not wearing seatbelts I will grant you, although enforcement of those laws is generally very lax in my experience. I strongly disagree with regulating them. Consumers should be given information to make a well informed decision, and then we should butt out. You don't want to wear a seat belt? It increases your risk of dying as a result of a crash by XX%. Go for it if you are willing to take that risk. I don't feel right imposing my own personal values on someone else when their actions aren't harming others (which I know is somewhat debatable with seatbelts). Nothing makes me feel that my own values and morals are superior enough to force them on someone else.
