how many people have babies accidently and everyone ends up paying for it.
Oh well at least what you said got me thinking about other stupid things people do that society ends up paying for. Took a little of the wind out of my sails.

How so? He wasn't demanding the right to survive crashes when only a helmet makes that possible.

The same people who pay for everyone else whose actions render them vegetables.

Sorry, as an advocate of civil rights (which especially includes minorities) I oppose anarchy.

I understand the pov, I had a BF who felt that same way. It's still much like childish defiance.

In part it's a matter of principle, but if we really want to analyze it there's some deeper validity

Depends on whether the driver, rather than the law, is the one insisting.

It's more a comfort issue than anything else; it's not solely one.

Apparently so; "completely anarchy as long as its regulated to one's body" sounds nonsensical to me.
