If you are doing the right thing anyway and a law is passed that is driven at doing the right thing, how exactly is that affecting you negatively?

Obviously you don't understand the concept of freedom and liberty if you have to ask that question.

That is a question from a raw socialist perspective. It’s a twist on the old question, “If you have nothing to hide, why are you against the police searching your house without a warrant?”.
The problem is that once you make a decision for someone that really only involves them and their personal safety, you have taken away their freedom to choose their own destiny. They have become your ward.
If you take away a persons freedom to fail, you ipso-facto take away their freedom to succeed. After all, if their “success” is because you made the decisions for them, it is not their success, it is yours. Which means you are the one that has the power, not them. They are merely well taken care of pets.
This country was founded on the concept of individual freedom. It brings with it risks. But life IS risk.
If I were a gazelle, I would rather live in the uncertainty of the Savannah than the “safety” of a zoo. It seems many here like the comfort of the zoo.
