One of the essays published in Klein's book, "3 Libertarian Essays," this long essay looks at the latest theory to justify regulations on peaceful activities like smoking, drugs, or playing video games: the notion of "multiple selves." In other words, the law does not protect you from yourself, but from your "other" self who makes those bad decisions. Fascinating read. (1998)
