""While blanket rules are easy to write up and (relatively) easy to enforce, they don't do justice to anything.
The "advantage" of blanket rules is that you don't have to think anymore. Just apply the rules, and you know whether what you're doing is acceptable or not. Blanket rules eliminate the need for personal responsibility, they eliminate the need to THINK.

It is a sad thing that so many people prefer the ease of blanket rules to the freedom and responsibility of thinking for themselves.

THAT"s what I don't like about blanket rules.""
