Ah, but what if all the mattress companies in town required
you to sign a contract promising never to have sex in their
beds?  Or what if the available phone providers monitored
their lines, and cut you off forever if you ever had a
conversation supporting Republican (or Democratic) candidates?
Then the "sniveling" would likely be a giant roar.  It's only
called "sniveling" when a few people complain, it's called
"the will of the people" when a lot complain, and then the
sniveling is written into law and enforced by armed gangs
(police).
