==Examples==
* "we can not let our son leave the closet because if we do, he might want to leave our house. If he leaves home he might eventually want to leave the neighborhood. If he leaves the neighborhood, he can be hijacked and used as a slave in another country. Therefore we should keep our son locked in the closet."
==Formal example==
Formally speaking this fallacy has the following structure:
''A'' leads to ''B'', then ''C'', ... then ultimately ''Z''!
