Next they will be banning all competive sports because someone might lose and damage there self esteem. Being competative is what makes this country work.

And do you know what will be next? CAPITALISM!

After all capitalism is the essence of competition! It is the distillation of everything competition is in the realm of finance, economy and pertinent areas!

So will these folks also do away with capitalism because 'it makes some people rich, and those who do not become rich will become dpressed...so we should make everyone happy and remove capitalism.'

If you follow their logic and extrapolate it you can see some strands of ther logic progressing to capitalism! It will probably never go that far, but if the game of tag is 'detrimental to self-esteem' what about capitalism that makes some very rich and others not as wealthy? Will not those who are not as oppulent feel 'sad and unworthy?'

I have to say the California school that came uo with this probably has a very atrophied logical acumen if they did not see how flawed there decision was!
