It's not an either/or proposition. Most people are libertarian at heart, but realize that in a civil society there must be rules not because we we want or need to be controlled, but because there's a substantial minority that must be for the sake of the rest of us. I applaud those who say they would not do this or that and no regulation is necessary. The problem is with those who would and force us to line with a necessary evil.Some have a government-centric perspective, others have an individual-centric perspective.
The Individual vs The Collective.
