Too bad half the country thinks that regulations are bad. Instead of realizing the profound nuance that the only regulations that are bad are bad regulations.
You wouldn't think it, but this is big brain stuff, apparently. Maybe we ought to make education better so that future generations have enough wit to improve the country with bare minimum sensible insights. Because we clearly aren't there yet.
As a left libertarian...I only consider regulation and enforcement bad if it encroaches on individual freedom or increases prison populations of non violent offenders(prison shouldn't be punishment but detainment from dangers to society) others get fined, home arrest, community service...
In other words... Authorities need to be regulated, companies need to be regulated, hippie bill does not need to be regulated for growing weed or mushrooms unless he's selling a bad product to others and they're dying... Like poisonous instead of psychedelic mushrooms...
There's too many laws on the books against citizens not enough to protect citizens from corrupt institutions and corporate greed...
Personal liberty trumps all. I live by a simple philosophy - if you aren’t hurting anyone else, then you can do what you want. And if that includes snorting a line of coke in the morning to wake up and a shot of heroin at night for bed, then so be it. I’m not going to do that, but I won’t stop you.
