I bet all the tens of millions of US citizens that live in abject poverty and don't even have access to free medical care chose that too, huh?
No, it was an accident of birth, you self-righteous little pr1ck - pure blind luck that you get all the benefits living in the US could possibly give - compared to all the disadvantages the US could possibly saddle you with...
Perhaps one day, you'll wake up and realise how lucky you are? I somehow doubt it - which is a sad indictment on all the advantages you've had in life...

Except that what I take issue with you about is your attitude - which you are more than capable of changing.
Don't worry though, reading your posts is like time travelling with Kuci back when he was as young and obnoxious as you are now. Assuming you follow his example, you'll stop being such a nasty little pr1ck as you mature...

I assume most people will find it better to pay just 75 $ a year, than risk having to pay >= 13 times
this value at once in case of a fire
iow the risk pool might be too small

It says a lot about a culture when your neighbors watch your house burn down when they can do something about it.
America is a heartless country. The bottom line is more important than people's lives and people's livelihood. The American dream is to push down others so you can rise to the top.

As I understand firefighting, putting out one fire involves spraying it with air and water and pushing the flames to another location. (ie displacing the fire). In this case that would mean causing a neighbor's house to burn down, so I'm not sure why anyone would be advocating that.
