Beware the Governement "do gooder"

As another commenter said "oh my God". Another Government elected official trying to help me. Please, I don't need your help! I don't need you to intrude into my life again Mr/s. city counsel-man, Mr/s. Congressman, Mr/s. State legislature! I've had enough government meddling in my life. Now you want to tell me when and where I can listen to music?

Its seems anymore our lives are full of those elected officials who are trying to help us, but really all they do is hinder us from our ability to enjoy our freedoms and rights.

Beware the elected official who though some seemingly benevolent purpose tries to deny you your right to life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness. Beware!

Life has consequences. People who chose to walk, with their sensory organs preoccupied, oblivious to what goes on around them tend not to survive. That is totally their choice.

I would rather have a world, where people are free to act as they please but are wholly responsible for their actions; rather than one where people make choices for me "for my own good". Life is not safe and it cannot be made safe by governement fiat.

Wasn't it Regan that said the 8 scariest words one could hear is: 'I'm from the Government, I'm here to help!'
