OK, this is not about BBM price, we just can't stand the govt anymore

Statement: "You don't get it. You can go all nerdy on the numbers and what not on the BBM price and on the subsidy. But hey, this is actually not about BBM price. You can adjust it whatever you want. But the reason why we oppose the price hike is simply because we can't stand the government anymore. They have been very disappointing to us lately"

Why it is a fallacy: Because it is akin to a mother whose son is in a serious illness and she refuses a treatment from the only certified medical doctor in town, simply because the mother doesn't like the doctor. [On a more serious note: by adjusting the price closer to its economic price, aka market price, you actually give less room to the government to interfere in your life. Isn't that what you want?]
