Can you really unequivocally state there is "no need?"

My mother is a photographer in the "rural setting" of Houston. Her equipment won't fit in a car. You must have really thought hard on that one. Damn, can you think of anything else you think people don't have a need for? Perhaps we should up the taxes on everything you can think of.

You ideas remind me of the restrictive societies of the Taliban. I am thinking of the greater good- Freedom.
