One of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; the search for a superior moral justification for minding everyone else's business

This is why UK voters rejected the Labour Party and its Nanny-State interference in their private lives:
"Frankly, we need a lot less of the passive tolerance of recent years..." Cameron said.

"A passively tolerant society says to its citizens: as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone."
It sounds like hell.

I'm developing an intelligent crotch-recognition program that uses your webcam to evaluate the status of your "Barn Door" and sends you (or your designee) a Twitter update about it.

If your horse keeps running for more than four hours, call your physician.
