   If I may add one more point.

   Who are these “new paternalists,” who (implicitly at least) presume to above the rest of us?

   One pictures these “social engineers” of human behavior in their white laboratory coats with their pocket protectors filled with colored pens, holding a clip board upon which they are recording all their dispassionate observations of those other, poor, imperfect, and irrationally inconsistent human beings.

   Give me a break. As if THEY never broke a New Year's resolution to stop smoking or keep their garage clean; or never swore to stop drinking so much at parties, as they dangled at the edge of a toilet bowl later that night, and then found themselves in the same situation after the next “wild” night out; or never gave in to the momentary desire to eat that rich dessert, and telling themselves AGAIN, that they'll get on that diet tomorrow.

   Who monitors the proper choices for and the actions of the paternalistic planners?

   These people seem to presume that they are somehow outside and above the human circumstance they are evaluating in the context of their constructed notion of “rational” choice.

   Am I the only one that finds this a bit arrogant on their part?

   Expect those 'in charge' to get stupider and crazier.

   “A group of students had their 'Mad Scientist' party brought to an abrupt end when police mistook them for terrorists.

   The private party, held in Hackney, north London, was organised by a group of friends dressed in white laboratory coats and wigs, who put on a display of theatrical 'experiments' to entertain guests.

   But when police entered the building for a routine check [???] in the early hours of Sunday morning, they discovered scientific debris and plastic skeletons and mistook it for terrorist paraphernalia or drug-making equipment.”

   The verdict of DMRs?

   Thick plod are getting thicker.

   They're not wrong … are they?
