[ QUOTE ]
Using utilitarianism for a basis of policy is oppressive.

[/ QUOTE ]

Any policy that forces someone to do or not do something could be seen as oppressive. Even the very basic: "don't steal". Who has the right to tell me what I do and don't own? I think I own the world, and everything in it. Are you going to force me to let you have some of my stuff? That's oppression.
