"They're too stupid to make their own decisions, I know better what's best for them, I must protect them from themselves".

I've never been given a reason to not think most people are morons

The problem is every one of us is most people on something. ;P

That's 100% true. That's why I'd like the help from experts to help me avoid being scammed, help me avoid drinking and eating poisoned food, or having to breath unhealthy air.

I don't always know the full repercussions from the decisions I make so I really appreciate having some expert help. This is especially true of decisions shitty people try to coerce me into making when I'm desperate or emotionally vulnerable.
