You have every right to your opinion. However we share facts..

It is your right to burn currency as you see fit. But you do not get points for it.

If he wants he could use burning money as a source of light.

You must surely be of the crowd who wants to dictate to me...what's good for me to eat.

If I want 3 orders of greasy Fries....Stand down, pal. That's my choice.

If you wish on your own to ingest ground glass or cyanide I support your right to make that choice. Ain't any of our business...even if we have to clean up the remains. Standard house keeping.

I would think though we have a right to regulate facilities that would serve you ground glass or cyanide.

We should at least agree it is good ground glass.

Actually, you have been arguing that he does not have a right to buy the light bulb that, in his opinion, is better for him.

So it seems your position is that he has every right to hold an opinion, but no right to act on that opinion.

(Oh, that's right, he can make his own light bulbs, but honestly, could there be a more lame suggestion? )
