A story I've told many times:
A few years ago at a neighborhood gathering, I overheard a neighbor listing all the things she would ban (long list), and she would also force businesses to pay fair wages, and she would force rich people to oay more taxes, and on and on.

I moved up to the group and said, "Maybe people don't want that. There might be a lot of unintended consequences."

She spun around and saw me. "You!" she said. "You're a Republican! You people just want to control everything!"

I said, "I'm a Conservative. I just want to be left alone. You, on the other hand, seem to have a VERY long list of things you want to control."

She hasn't spoken to me since.

I am sure that just breaks your heart. NOT.
