Personal choices that have the ability to significantly negatively impact many other people have something of a tendency to get regulated and controlled in some manner.
That's reality and it's not unreasonable. The thing we need to sort out is where to draw those lines to optimize for best outcomes for both individuals and society.
- psychlops 5y agoNicely worded and I completely agree. For better or worse, individual choice is being bludgeoned to death by today's irrational zero risk mentality.
