Well this sums up the progressive mentality extraordinarily well. "I don't really have a personal connection to this thing, pay much attention to it, wouldn't really care if it went away, but by God we need to set this rule I want to make it work exactly how I say it should. No, I haven't really studied it, I'm not going to rely on any data or "facts" or any of that nonsense, I'll only argue from first principles in a vague, hand wavy way. And I am not going to acknowledge any complexity the world, this is black and white and it will work exactly the simple way I say."
