<<In NZ, the government now only pays for treatment to "keep you alive until the cheque book can be prised from your grasp". I think most people now pay for their own medical expenses for most things. Otherwise, it's a huge waiting list and delay.>> Maurice,in NZ, who would pay for 30 years of long term care from a crack to the mellon? <<Even if the government did pay all medical and other expenses, the fact that they choose to pay for damaged melons doesn't mean people should be obligated to follow dopey instructions by those choosing to pay, or more precisely, those choosing to force other people to pay.>> Maurice, you may not like to be part of the dopey advanced masses but alass you are..it is fun to let your imagination run wild about "true" freedom tho eh?? <<You call it stupid to not wear a helmet on a bicycle. But I doubt you wear a helmet when walking. I am inventing a fashionable new helmet and hope to have it become a legal requirement to wear one at all times. We can't be too safe you know and plenty of people damage their melon by the simple action of falling off their feet. Safety is vital. You can't put a price on human life. Insert other safety cliches and mindless slogans here.>> In Canada , i personally do not care who wears a helmet, or who doesn't...Our society has progressed by laws and rules..third world societies are trying to progress and they won't do it without laws and rules.That simple...you can rail all you like.<g> <<Please send me a cheque for US$50 and I'll ship you the first Qwash helmet. Rhymes with crash. Please ask Canada to make it a legal requirement while in a standing position to wear a Qwash helmet [or equivalently safe helmet]. You don't want to be stupid like all those Chinese riding bicycles in Beijing. Do you know that more people are brain injured or skull pained while NOT riding a bicycle than riding one? We need SAFE communities. Order a Qwash today. Bulk orders get a discount, so ask if you need a lot.>> Maurice is being silly. <<Stop being stupid.>> Maurice is getting edgy lol gg
