What good is freedom if we don't have the opportunity to make wrong choices?

Are you seriously arguing that there can be a shortage of wrong choices, or that they could ever be eliminated?

I'm saying that doing the right thing is meaningless when you are forced by the State to do the right thing.

I'm saying that "government morals" is both an oxymoron and anathema to freedom.
