Bloated government insurance program
Isn't getting insurance actually a really prudent thing to do?
In a free society, it should be up to an individual. It’s not prudent in every situation for every person for every type of insurance. Example, I live at a very high elevation, 600 miles or so from the ocean. I don’t think it would be prudent for me to spend my money on flood insurance.
I would like to get rid of that mighty bloated U.S. insurance program called the Department of Defense. I live in northern Minnesota, and I don't fear an attack from Canada or anyone else.
If anyone, anywhere else, feels the need for a Department of Defense type insurance policy, let them buy it themselves.
