    Here is that fine line between your rights and my rights and the rights of society. Sure IF it's ok to shoot heroin in your own home that may only be hurting the user, until the addiction becomes so great they can't hold a job, resort to whatever means to "feed" the habit, deteriorate healthwise even to the point of needing emergency help, etc...etc...etc....All of which is ultimately borne by the citizens who pay taxes, charitable organizations, workers who pay insurance premiums, (health, homowners, etc..) and on and on.

    The "I should be able to do whatever I want as long as it doesn't affect anyone else" would be an acceptable concept if it could actually be implemented. But if you are a member of society...any society...EVERYTHING you do will have an impact on that society. Whether imperceptively small or glaringly huge...it will impact that society. So the society as a whole must decide what it will or will not accept. I contend that there is no such thing as absolute isolationism where your actions have no impact on the rest of the world. If you live by yourself on an island in the middle of the ocean, and you eat a fish, build a fire or piss in the ocean...you have affected the environment of others...even though it may be minute.

    The rights of the indivdual and the rights of the whole are not absoulute. It is a delicate dance which is changing constantly. We do it better here in the US than anywhere else in the wourld IMO.
