I have no idea why you say that. I accept completely the logical consequences of my position. Do you? Under your theory, the government can engage in mind control of you if it thinks it's in society's interest. You have no rights at all as long as the government thinks what it's doing is in the interests of the membership in humanity, since you posit that as the highest goal. Very, very scary. An "original sin" argument of government -- every child born is the total slave of society from the day it is born. Not my concept of government. I think man is born free, gives certain limited rights to governments, and retains the rest. Totally different from your conception.
