So should we limit how much food one is allowed to buy because it’s a drain on the NHS? How about banning alcohol, because alcoholism creates innumerable problems for people other than the alcoholic in question as well? Hell, might as well make them apply for home-cooking licenses so we make sure they don’t give their relatives salmonilla this holiday, otherwise how can we know your grandma can trust you to cook for her? Can’t trust you OR her to make their own decisions without daddy’s your figurative abusive husband’s the government’s approval. Cor, blimey!

Fuck it, might as well hold people’s hands their entire lives, wouldn’t want them to make mistakes and possibly even grow and become better people would we? No wouldn’t want that, better round down the edges of life until it’s barely worth living, that’ll do the trick.
