Once you accept that diet can be controlled, or any minor thing can be controlled, then you accept that everything can be controlled.

Once you allow...let's say...the government, any government, saying you can regulate what you can see on television, you logically must then accept the government regulating all aspects of your life and if something is regulating you, they need to watch what they control.

There is a reason it's called a "slippery slope". It's because once you accept one premise you must then accept all following premises to remain logically consistent.

So if you added 7 and 9, the answer would be 64.

Then we transport a mathematician to this planet and he causes an intergalactic incident by saying "No, one plus one is two." Because he hasn't caught on to the automatic multiplication. And two is the number of evil on their planet since it's not obvious as an answer to an addition problem. And then they bombard our planet with Mu-Radiation (a combination of Alpha- and Beta-Radiation, times four...duh).

And this causes everyone to quadruple. And then there are four of everyone running around.

It would be MADNESS!
