| While not everyone will have the intellect or education to take responsibility for their lives in that aspect most of us have consciences and/or at least a dash of common sense. Most of us have a little alarm that goes off when we feel something is not right. Most of us have no problem going back to the counter to b*tch out the teenager behind the cash register for not cutting the onions on our big mac so why should we balk when it comes to taking steps to preserve our health? It certainly doesn't take a degree to realize that no one will care about you as much as yourself.
I guess my point is that we are responsible for ourselves no matter our education and we are only relieved of that when we don't have the mental capacity to do as such; i.e. -- too young, insanity, retardation, etc. |
