My dad complained to me the other day that the government makes stupid laws. The goddamned government, according to him, has faaaarrrr too much say into what we do and how we live our lives. Here are the three main points of his argument:
1.Seat belt laws are stupid. In the 60s, people rode around without wearing their seatbelts and were A-OK.
2.Laws requiring raw meat being cooked to a specific temperature in restaurants are none of the governments business. Restaurants should be able to serve you a piece of chicken however they damn well please.
3.The government is spending your hard-earned money on scientific research.
Okay, the third one isn't really government intervention - he is just upset about, um, knowledge I guess. This is coming from the same man who couldn't get a job for two years and just took a (temporary) position working for the Census Bureau. Great Job!
