Society grants that privilege in this case, even though the person hasn't earned it. That does not mean that driving is a right.

Every minute of every day, you are conforming to the rules and norms of society. That is the price you pay in order to participate. If you are unable to recognize those conformations, and you are unaware that this is happening every moment of your life that you are outside your own home, well, that's on you.

Do you put pants on in the morning before you head out of the house? Do you do that because you think pants are nifty? Or do you do that because playing within the (very mild and flexible) rules of society demands that you do?

Is it a right to wear pants (or insert a million other tiny rules or norms)? Or is it an obligation to be met in order to participate in a functioning society?

This is not rocket surgery. Every 3 year old learns that they either follow the rules, or they spend time in their room. "Yes, Johnny, there are consequences to your actions and choices".




What's cute about this post is that you actually appear to believe that you are 'winning'.

Amazing. Had me laugh out loud. Well done sir.
