RE: The "Social Contract" Excuse
this is exactly what i meant by saying people "choose" to be bound by specific contractual obligations in exchange for perceived "benefits".
The mere fact that people ask for permission to do something that is considered otherwise lawful says it all.
The act of asking for permission is an expression of an acceptance of some perceived authority and of an intent to be (or continue to be) submissive to that perceived authority.
