Our voice: We live in a caffeine culture

Abstract:
Go to any classroom in the morning and you will likely see several people drinking energy drinks or coffee. Go peek in on a late-night study session and you will likely see more of the same. It seems many college students feel they cannot get through the day without that periodic pick-me-up....

Amen comrade.

Then after we ban energy drinks we can ban red meat, candy bars, and junk food. Heck, ban water. Moderate consumption of water won't hurt you either, but if some simpleton of a student overdoes it on the water it could have negative effects too.

We cannot just stand by and mind our own business while others are free to make potentially poor choices. They must be forced to do what we perceive as good for them. If they don't want to do what's good for them we should do things to punish them that are worse for them.

ALL HAIL THE IRON FIST OF TOTALITARIANISM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
