Bad laws make for bad liberty.


Every company believes the laws which interfere with their capacity for profit are bad laws. That doesn't actually make them so.


I'm not sure I understand your point. Is it that you should be free to disregard any law you think is bad, because these bad laws infringe on your liberty?


Free from what? Legal consequences, social recrimination or moral guilt? The answers are not necessarily the same.

One could argue the Uber should be punished, but that they should do it anyway.
