It's for your own good!
A friend pointed this site out to me.
My question, why don't people who are lactose intolerant just avoid milk products?
The answer is that according to these people, folks can't be trusted to make up their own minds. And it is a chance for lawyers to make money and certain people to get a lot of media attention. Even if the money is awarded, the chances of those who suffered actually getting more than a token payment is very small.
Why is it that people who want to do something for your own good won't trust you to make the choice?
