Why do we have to wear seatbelts when only 1,146 people were killed in road related accidents last year?
Why do I have to pass urine when I have never had a ruptured bladder?
Why do they make me wear ear muffs in a noisy work environment when I have never been deaf?
Why do I have to wear a welding mask when I have never been blinded when arc welding?
Why do we supply clean tap water when I have never caught cholera?
Why can’t I watch the nail gun fire close up when I have never nailed my brain?
Why do I have to empty my bowels when I have never had colonic impaction?
Why do they write “do not drink” on bleach bottles when no one who can read drinks bleach?
Why does it say “No Smoking” on a petrol pump when only one petrol station has caught fire in Australia this year?
Why do we have COVID-19 restrictions when only 102 people have died of the disease in Australia? <end>
