That analogy is flawed in so many ways. To pick just the most important one: I'm not forcing rationality on anyone. What CE, or any other poster for that matter, thinks, is largely irrelevant for me. It's when people come on the internet to "share their story", implicitly or explicitly criticizing "policy", that I think rationality is important. And poser's last post is rather explicitly policy-related.
