My point was not intended to be critical. I had hoped to be more thought provoking. My focus is on the idea of 'control' itself. Laws and rules derived from the law are intended as control measures to shape or control bad behavior. So the question then becomes; Who decides what is bad and therefore needs to be controlled​? Further; Do we need to talk about control measures first? Wouldn't it be more advisable to speak to rational self-interest first? Maybe I'm asking the wrong questions, but, it seems to me that 'human nature' is treated as​ a problem to be controlled or solved, rather than as an opportunity space for learning and growth.

Cheers.
