I see this same argument peddled around for a lot of different things and it's absolute horse shit. We do nothing to improve society for our citizens because of bullshit misinformation like that and yet? PRICES OF EVERYTHING CONTINUE TO RISE!

I think it's important to acknowledge that there's a big difference between an individual expressing a concern about something in an online conversation, and a specific lobby making an official argument. I don't think OP was making an argument. They seem to just be expressing a concern. It's a valid concern. That doesn't mean it's accurate, or founded in facts or research, it's just a fear.
