Consequences for our actions rule our society......The reason people follow a law is not because its a law.....humans as a group are notoriously free willed beings, telling them they can't do something, makes them more likely to do it...case in point...kids...they'll bend and break every rule they can until the consequences make them respect a boundary. ...The reason people follow a law is not because its a law. its because theres a societal consequence for not following that law....You may chose to not follow it because you feel its wrong, but there will still be consequences for it that an intelligent person considers.
I drive 60 MPH, not because its the law or its been statistically proven to be safer and save gas.....but simply because I can't afford the dang ticket and court date if I do that 70-80 Mph or more that I really want to drive.

I disagree. Cause and effect is something we are taught from an early age. Pull your sisters hair, get spanked.
Most folks understand that there are going to be repercussions for unacceptable social behavior.
Al drives too fast - he gets a ticket.
Perhaps an oversimplification? What about those with physical issues (as was eluded to about the person we are discussing) or other
internal factors (crack babies, fetal alcohol syndrome eg.).
The legal system operates when someone exceeds the societal norms we have established. One has to take responsibility for ones own life and happiness.
If someone doesn't "feel" they are important, they need to correct their life - not depend on others to do it for them.
