In general, rules either exist for the benefit of an individual or of society in general.
If you think the rules that benefit society in general do not apply to you simply because you disagree with them then you are nothing more than a common arsehole.
- swombat 14y agoNope. You have a very strange view of rules. Who taught you that that's why they exist? Rules exist because someone (or a group of someones) decided to make them exist. There is no necessity that the rule be actually for the benefit of anyone, though most societies try to require rules to at least seem vaguely beneficial before adopting them. A month in any corporation should make it obvious that rules and benefits are entirely orthogonal concepts, much of the time.
