Government Restrictions Go Too Far Policing Consumers

Congratulations to Debra Goldman for exposing the conspiracy behind the “Consumer Republic” [March 12].

In the past, the government has stepped in to save us from ourselves and our stupidity with helmet laws and seat belts, posted warnings and DWIs. The dangers incurred by overproduction and unjustified consumption of food warrants yet another excuse for government intervention when we fail to police ourselves.

Imagine, if you will, thanks to law enforcement, a reformed and svelte American public.
