and people will do things that you will disapprove of. However I'm glad that medical care doesn't come with a moral judgement. Even people who take stupid risks deserve to have their insurance claims paid.

Your insurance also pays for the Paris Hiltons and Oxy Rushes. Simply because they don't meet your puritanical ideal of who should get insurance money doesn't mean that they are unworthy of using the benefits that they pay for.

An adult getting a ticket for biking without a helmet is idiotic. Ditto for seatbelts. If someone wants to be a Darwin candidate, then that is their right. I don't want the goverment treating me like a child that doesn't know any better. F off.

Bottom line: You can't save people from themselves. Tickets are just a feel good measure to generate revenue.
