It's like giving a homeless person $10 and saying, "You can only spend this on food. Do you agree?" If the person trots down to the closest liquor store and spends the $10 on cheap wine, and then drinks most (if not all of it), what are your options? Don't give them any more money? Give them a temperance sermon? See if there is a 5-cent deposit on the bottle? It's the same story, just at a different level of cash involved. ,,,,,,,,,,
I have nothing to add, SteveZ. I just wanted to say that last paragraph of yours is an absolutely perfect analogy. There's nothing like a good analogy to explain things clearly.
