We all have lines drawn in the sand where we think that Gov't has overstepped and they are all over the map. My line has a lot to do with "how does this law for me, affect someone else". Forcing me to wear a helmet does not protect anyone else in any way so therefore it is something that should not be done.
I am quite capable of taking care of myself.
I am, however, not totally opposed to gov't providing some information on the subject.
