I don't have one so lets ban it

Digg!
As found here; The current Transport Minister Annette King and the Transport Safety Minister Harry Duynhoven are now discussing "banning radar detectors and other detection and interference devices". This will require law changes to define what you can and can not have in your car. Why don't we ban hot coffee or screaming children? We are talking about introducing a penalty of 25 demerit points for failing to wear a seatbelt! A seatbelt should be optional right? If you want to hurt yourself a bit extra or die in a crash thats your business. This is another case of the New Zealand government getting far too involved in your life. They brand it as making us safer but does it achieve that? One could argue that if you banned everything but drinking and eating you would be safe but what's the fun in that. This bloated government that thinks we don't know how to run our own lives has got to stop. To those that actually think the government knows better than you. "People willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both." Happy Holidays all

Why Should I Get Married?

Digg!
If you are not religious:

Marriage is a reason for a party.

Marriage is a legally binding contract between two people saying that they are no longer individuals under law, they are one. A prenuptial agreement is almost idiotic as you are annulling the major parts of the marriage.

If you are religious:

Marriage is so that you have sex and have a legally binding contract between two people saying that they are no longer individuals under law, they are one. A prenuptial agreement makes sense if you only did it for the sex because you are annulling the bad bits of the marriage.

If you are religious and have already had sex:
