The Pet Peeve

Over-government?
Who pays for your care if you don't wear a helmet, or protective gear, and don't have insurance, or are a long term care project because you have serious injuries, but didn't die?
(all the taxpayers raise your hand here)

In countries like Thailand, where motorcycles are common, do you think you would have the medical care that the U.S. does? Nope. If you have an accident and don't have the means to pay for care, you die. Here, you might live a long unhappy life.

So helmet laws protect the taxpayer.
I shouldn't have to pay higher medical costs or higher taxes because you won't put a bucket on your head.
