I agree. I'm not big on intervention of any kind - people should be free to destroy themselves if they are that freaking stupid and/or rebellious. I know that's harsh but that's what I believe. We are all responsible for our own actions. Deep down Spitzer knew what he was doing was wrong and deep down his wife knew she was stupid to stay with him. But apparently she chose greed over common sense.
AND THAT is the nail on the head right there. WE, YOU, ME, are RESPONSIBLE. Not Mama, Daddy, teacher, football coach, soccer coach. ME, YOU. We are responsible. Oh, wait, I forgot. The Imperial Federal Government has a say now don't they? /sarcasm still on
