It's weird how all of your arguments are made by way of strained analogies.

[/ QUOTE ]

It's not strained, it's ridiculous, which is exactly the point - the analogy points out the ridiculousness of the social contract.

So you agree, the analogy above is valid and dumb. It can only be dumb because the situation it is analogous to is dumb. Voila.
