228. An analogy of your argument.

You're argument is like saying that because you can (are able to) jump out an eighteen story window that you have to be constantly restrained, because either you will jump or whatever you do instead will be just as bad.

Just because Congress can, theoretically, compel the purchase of Beanie Babies doesn't mean everything it does instead will be just as stupid or bad, or damaging to freedom.
