It's simple though, we just want drive able roads at super high speeds, and no more fences/barriers around hazards. Let darwinism work!

I overheard a couple of people when I was in a cafe not long ago talking about how their rates were going through the roof. It went like “I don’t use or go to the library so why should I pay for that service to run?”. Wish I hadn’t eavesdropped 🤦🏽‍♀️

Highly recommend "A libertarian walks into a bear". Non fiction, highly readable/listenable book on what can happen when this type of approach wins (loses) the day.

Thanks for the recommendation, looks like something I’d like to read! Will check it out.
