  I didn't poo-poo with the idea of having car insurance, I poo-pooed
the idea of the gov't FORCING us to have car insurance.

  The people who don't buy it, and then crash into your car, deserve
to take their chances with a very angry Big Mike when they can't
afford to pay for the repairs.

  The gov't meddles FAR too deeply in our lives, in my opinion.

  Agreed 100%.
