I will admit this up front - I really, really, dislike rules. I'm no rebel, nor do I have a problem with authority - I simply don't like rules. Why? Because, generally speaking, they tend to exist because we assume we need them - whether they are legitimate or not. Our society has an obsessive, almost debilitating, need to create rules for everything. They are a short-cut for the ignorant and a crutch for those who lack creativity.
