Mills.. I disagree.

I hate to write on what everyone is going to say, but our options are limited due to the wonderful Thursday Constitution activities. It was a close battle....
Anywho, on to Mills. He states that it is fine for an individual to harm himself so long as it harms no other. I agree on certain terms. First, it is wrong for someone to harm themselves. We are in God's temple; our bodies are not our own. But honestly I wouldn't want my government telling me I can't eat fatty foods or smoke. That's my decision, so I agree with Mills that the government can't regulate such petty things. A more difficult scenario is drug use. I disagree with Mills that drugs should be legalized, because it is nearly impossible to use them without causing some kind of harm to others. Drugs induce false and crazy states of mind, putting those around the user in major risk of being harmed.
Overall, the government must be wise in deciding where the boundaries are in limiting citizens' freedom. There are certain choices we have to make for ourselves that government should not limit, but I disagree with Mills that it should not interfere at all.
