RE:Animal Farm

A redux of Animal Farm (and 1984) seems to be playing out when the New England Journal of Medicine wishes to "impose voluntary sodium limits on 150 food categories. "  The contradiction of terms 'voluntary'  and impose' never bothered neither the better two-legged pigs of Animal farm nor the ministry of truth in 1984.  Such a reality is forced compliance. Freedom of choice, our God-given right must be evaluated in terms of morality and reason.  In the Netherlands a 17yr. old girl exercised her free choice by euthanizing herself.  Is this proper use of free will or a ridiculous perversion of its meaning for a 12 yr. old?  Does our government then, have the right to determine our lives, liberties and pursuits of happiness?
