Well, in an extended correspondance with Starchild, I'm *not* hearing any cognicence that "it's not right for me to make that kind of decision", and that's what bugs me about him. (Turns out he's a guy, so I'll drop the gender -neutral pronouns ":sie" and "hir" I'd been using.)
If he'd responded in the way you're setting forth, I'd be perfectly satisfied, but it just ain't happening. And his apparent failure to understand that this issue is not properly a subject of law is why I don't think he should be *making* law.
It *might* be a simple failure of verbal expression...but laws are verbal expressions too. Do *you* see him saying anywhere in that that the reason not to make such a law has nothing to do with the practicality or economic consequences of doing so but is rather a matter of principle?
