i have been consistent on this in the past: through the use of insurance requirements, it will become prohibitively expensive to drive your own car

incredibly fucked up

easier to make freedom expensive than illegal

It bothers me every time I have to register my own car. License plates, registrations, inspections, insurance requirements…I dislike it all.

What's "fucked up" is 70 years of centrally-planned urban and suburban development patterns that have made the ability to travel around the country by any means other than The Car prohibitive. Cars are bad for the planet, and human life

They 100% want us all in autonomous vehicles with no control

Kind of like they’re trying to take away the personal pc by making memory prohibitively expensive for the average Joe.

incredibly normal, actually. Idolaters get what their idols decide they get. There is only one Insurer.

There will be premiums on freedom. Plan accordingly.

Logically, if the roads are flooding with safer robot cars, then my insurance costs should go down, but no, that’s never how it works out is it

There is nothing unfree about being in a self driving car if: you still own it, choose where it goes, and can take over and drive when you want.

GM was also recently found to be selling vehicle location data. Very messed up.

Positive note also, if I have a full self driving car when why the fuck would I need a drivers license? Less standardized KYC for 16 year olds in the near future.

Same playbook as with guns, private property taxes, or even home schooling regs. Make liberty a luxury good, then act shocked when the poors 'choose' not to exercise it.

“I heard he drives his own car” “No freaking way. How can he afford the interest?” “I think he was like an early bitcoiner or something.”

We need privately owned, open source, offline self driving cars 😀 Bitcoin doesn’t fix that.

Yeah, I have been saying the same that’s why it so important for the 18-wheelers businesses to implement FSD their operation cost will drop dramatically.

Fuck that. I'm not doing it. I will drive myself, shifting my own gears until the day I die.

There will be a tipping point where enough of the population has adopted autonomous cars all programmed to avoid accidents, and the need for traffic enforcement goes to zero. A potential exists for a golden age to be a driver. That's when you want a lambo.

Our car insurance is high because of electric cars in the first place. It costs an arm and a leg to fix those things as opposed to internal combustion engine vehicles
Adam Dunlap ⚡️ · 4w
It’s no f’ed up to charge someone less. Note they do not say they will be charging people more. It’s a discount Your view is analogous to calling to F*cked up for a grocery store to have a sale

Not having to drive opens up other freedoms like shitposting. 🤷🏻‍♂️

When i was living in WI for 4 years I was driving my camaro w/o insurance. Just because i believe insurance is a fiat scam. Americans told me this is not allowed. I told em to GFY.

Carney the central bank parasite in Canada just quietly brought in fines up to $10,000 for minor driving violations for "safety" of course. One ticket and you'll never drive your car again

Unironically return to tradition and build cities and towns that don’t require us to travel by giant overpriced wheelchairs

More expensive than to not drive yes, but why would it be more expensive than today?
