What do you think about aeroplanes GON?   Nev

GON, your argument about insurance is the equivalent of buying a pizza for your mate and then asking for your money back from the pizza shop after your mate's eaten it because he didn't give you any.

House insurance is not compulsory.

Yes, but still don't get a refund if you don't claim, which you keep thinking you should be entitled to.

Do you mean out of the kindness of our hearts, or by forced charity?

Well, partly, you may be hard-hearted enough to prefer a world where a paraplegic was just left to die.   More importantly, civilised societies don't really work if they are based on everyone for themselves.  We acknowledge that as people age, they need more support.  We pay pensions.  Whilst we may pay tax during our lives, the growing proportion of the aging population means that younger taxpayers are helping to pay for older people. The medical system, in terms of cost, is skewed towards older folks. Perhaps we should greatly increase the Medicare levy for people over sixty and decrease the Levy for the young who seldom need hospital care.

 

You really only seem to give a sh1t about yourself and then make posts looking for sympathy or pity because ..... poor you.  I doubt that anyone here gives a toss about your constant moaning.  I would assume that most people here own a car and have to pay CTP.  Although no one enjoys parting with money, have you noticed you are the only one who seems to be struggling to cope with everyday modern life?

Medicare is for checking your blood pressure etc. It has nothing to do with the manner in which you drive your motor vehicle. 

Medicare is a good example of a system where we all contribute, and when we ourselves need it, the medical treatment is there. It is very much like your issue with CPT.

Yep, I think maybe both of these.

[facthunter]

I don't think he is fair dinkum either. He's probably just playing us for Mugs.  He's invented this made up character and is Playing it Out. Nev

[Marty_d]

I really hope he invented the persona, I'd hate to think there was someone who actually held those views.

Good on you @octave and others for trying to explain the self-evident facts, but I think it's a lost cause.

You've just described GON's favourite country - the USA
