Default I figured out a solution to all our social woes

Take the warning labels off everything that should be obvious. We'll not only solve part of the landfill/waste problem, but also improve the gene pool by ridding ourselves of those who don't have basic sense

Warning labels are not meant to protect the (genetically deficient) consumer.
Rarely are labels read and those dumb enough to misuse the product are normally dumb enough to ignore the label.
They are intended to protect the manufacturer.
