I and everyone else finances the roads you drive, the sidewalks alongside them, the traffic signals, the traffic cops, the gov't that makes up the rules of the road, the maintenance crews, etc. etc.

Exactly WHAT do you think you pay for so completely that you can do whatever you darn well feel like? Exactly what airtight bubble do you live in that your actions don't affect others?

For the umpteenth time, for those who want to live a free life, hie thee quickly to the middle of nowhere (say Idaho or Montana) and get the heck off of the grid. At that point, you could declare yourselves pretty free and so far off the beaten track that no one would bother you.

Try driving that Hummer without roads and auto mechanics and gas stations and see how long it lasts.

I wish you were around so I could buy people a few packs of cigarets and have them smoke it next to you day in and day out...I guess since you did not pay for their smoking, it would fit right in with your value system.
