What a shit take, “oh you can’t afford 75000 dollars, so that means you should instead also spend thousands of dollars every year for the rest of your life, and hey you are legally required to do so!”
I’d have fewer complains if driving weren’t a necessity to survive in this country, public transportation is few and far between if it even exists locally, and good luck getting any decent job without a car, or I guess you get minimum wage at the local gas station barely even being able to pay for rent. Oh, want to move? Guess what you’d need for that!
It’s a rigged system, and I despise seeing someone try to justify any part of it because “oh you could just pay $75000” ??? Fucking ridiculous.








It’s not a completely separate discussion though. If driving is necessary to live and work, and you legally have to have insurance to drive, then I believe that to be a completely reasonable connection. I’m not saying we shouldn’t have a system in place to ensure people’s lives don’t get destroyed without proper compensation, I’m simply saying our current system is broken, and to try to justify it with saying you can spend what amounts to more than what the average person annually makes in the US is ridiculous.
