Right... You endorse/support the use of force against people who do not agress against you or anyone in order to steal their wealth and use it for your benefit. Why would you be anxious to change?...deadin said:My feeling is the old hack, "better the devil you know". I can live with it and at my place in life, I'm not anxious to change and go charging off blindly in new directions.
You are lying. You endorse sending armed thugs to break down my door if I refuse to pay for your schemes or if I engage in peacefull transactions with consentimg adults that you do not approve of.(And just as you seem to have no concern for me or my stituation, I really don't care too much about yours.)
I, on the other hand, do not insist on you doing anything or sacrificing anything as long as you do not agress against anyone. Quite a difference in our positions.
That's a load of BS. The last thing that big businesses want is to have competition from nimble and efficient upstarts. They are already big and on top - in competition they can only lose. Even if they retain their position, it will require much more effort on the part of the managers - a totally different skill set than shmoozing with lobbyists and politicians, so the cronyist, neportistic management will be out even if the companies survive.This statement does absolutely for your credence. (It almost sounds like you are readind from a "Little Red Book" or something similar) It just shows how much you don't know but are willing to spout off about. Insurance companies would love to get government out of their hair.
So they would much rather buy government influence to stop the competition.
Which makes them way higher then they could be - as well as being unfair wealth-redistribution scheme rather than true insurance.You think rates are high now? The "government" you seem to detest so much controls the rates that an insurance company can charge.
You must be insane if you think that an example of me being forced to pay higher premuims so that an unsafe driver could have affordable insurance and continue endangering me at my expense would make me like that scheme.Got a bad driving record? You can still get insurance (albiet at a higher rate) because the nasty government says the insurance industry has to offer it. If the insurance company had their druthers, you wouldn't be insured.
I would either:They may say they'e "responsible" for their actions, but if they don't have any money or insurance, I'm going to be paying my hospital bills regardless of what happens to them.
A) have my own insurance
B) drive only on the roads who's owners require/provide insurance
Neither option requires enslaving myself or anybody else.
The policy of acceptable safety gear, driving limits, insurance as well as disposal of remains will be up to the owner of the road.If they spread thenselves all over the highway because they feel it's nobodys business if they wear a seatbelt or helmet, are we going to just leave them beside the road to die because they opted to not have insurance or don't have money?
