Yeahhh, that's not what society is actually for, per se. Even if you
take a harsh reading of Foucault and realize that we've moved from a
disciplinary society to a control society (and then to a panoptic
society), you're quite cynical if Punishment is all you think that
society is structured to do. That, or you feel extra put-upon for some
reason.
Everything okay, Softy?
