The problem isn't what we do in the panopticon its that the panopticon exists in the first place. The problem isn't those who choose to act a certain way (drink ect. whatever). To do so is their choice to make. The problem is you who decide that values, particularly your values (which really is so convenient that i'm surprised children cant see through your deception) somehow achieve objective validity. The attitude present in the OP is the modern panopticon; its the changed face of totalitarianism.
