Comments by "No Way" (@NoWay1969) on "Do You Have A Right To Use That Elevator? (with Neil McCabe)" video.
The thing is that situations like this are really not free choices. We take elevators and eat Big Macs and don't get enough exercise due to unthinking convenience not choice. The local blood bank has an elevator next to a nice wide open staircase. I have never seen anyone take the elevator. Granted it's only one flight of stairs, but I couldn't imagine anyone taking it if it were more. The stairs are just more convenient the way the building is laid out. We have advertisers and corporations doing everything that they can to make unhealthy convenient. The government should take steps to make good choices convenient. We can see with happened with smoking that a simple nudge from the government in the right direction makes a huge difference. Of course, some fools will argue that lung cancer is a freedom of choice issue.
