67. You are part of the system

that pays for the health care. But many people (including me) did not want that system in place. It was forced upon us. But, whatever. We can't do anything about it. We're all part of that system. I pay taxes too.
And you can complain all you want about people's eating habits. But you don't have the right to do anything about it. You don't have the right to get laws passed to limit people's personal choices. I was against this health care thing in the first place because I knew things like this would come up. Limits on portions. New, weird laws that were unnecessarily oppressive. I had visions of cops handing out citations to people that walk down to the mailbox barefoot. "We're paying for your health care, so we'll make the decisions from now on."
And you're bascially doing that. You're supporting what is probably going to be the first of many laws of this kind. And what we have to do is slap those laws down and crush them hard. You can complain all you want about my eating and drinking habits. And as long as you have absolutely no power to do anything about it, I can ignore you and do whatever I want.
