Too much choice (1)

It seems to me that if you let people marry who they like, this can only inevitably lead them to want to exercise choice in other fields of human endeavour and then where would we be? Today it's three people getting married but tomorrow it could be drinking water with a bit of lime in it instead of a more economically strategic soft drink or someone deciding they don't want to work 80 hours weeks.

I'm talking to you, Brazil

That\s certainly the common perception, and it\s that perception that gets presented in mainstream media and entertainment.

And like so many public opinions, it is over simplified and partly wrong.
