Abstract:
By their very nature, regulations that protect society in general usually inhibit the personal freedom of people as individual citizens. Public health practices are at the forefront of this relationship. For example, North Carolina requires compulsory examination for venereal disease of applicants for a marriage license and inmates in jails.
