The things that get in your way

The libertarian might say, "See! When the government gets involved, it just puts up unnecessary barriers! We should let people be free go their own way!" But I appreciated the rails were there today -- they helped keep my trolley cart full of groceries from escaping from me.

When things don't make sense, consider the possibility that they weren't made for you. It can be hard if you're used to being the center of your own universe.
