Funny... I feel society has taken things way to far towards the other end of the scale, with governments' apparent desire for regulating every last minute of our lives. As if they feel it is their duty to reduce humanity to mindless drones, for our own protection.

No thank you!

I also have a hard time seeing losers as being the ones who have taken too much personal responsibility, as the few losers I know are losers precisely because they avoid taking responsibility for anything in their lives. Nothing is their fault, there is always someone else to blame and they are true victims of their circumstance.

Makes me very sad to think that someone would choose to live like that...
