A Conversation
curi: I think the notion that taking away freedom from people helps them by making it harder for them to make mistakes is absurd. Even if it did prevent mistakes, it wouldn't be help.
crowd: hmmm
curi: Imagine not being allowed to use computers to help you avoid breaking a computer!
crowd: Yeah!
Lone Voice from crowd: Hey, don't we help children like that?
curi: No!
crowd: Hey, he's right. Yes we do.
curi: I mean we shouldn't do that.
crowd: What!?
Lone Voice: You don't think children should have any rules or boundaries? You're nuts!
curi: I don't think we should make our children unfree.
crowd (not listening to fine points): Lynch him!!!
