Not talking about obvious things like crime. I mean things that people just accept as part of life. Things everyone does, but when you really think about it, it actually makes no sense.

Gasoline.

How many other toxic and highly volatile chemicals do we let 15 year olds squirt out of a hose with no supervision? Hell, we even have little TVs to distract them while they do it.

If I were to put 40 litres of diesel in a barrel in my backyard and set it alight I’d get in a heap of trouble. If I put it in my car and drive a 400km it’s acceptable.
