Helmets are for fallers.

Of course, I’m joking, but I’m also dead serious.

You shouldn’t be legally required to wear a helmet; that’s the government ripping away your freedom right there.

You’re not endangering anybody but yourself.

You shouldn’t be required to wear your seatbelt either (and I don’t—not because I’m trying to be cooler anything, but as a protest against Big Brother—believe it or not, I’m actually terrified not wearing my seatbelt, but the boycott is more important than my fear).

The government needs to get their dainty little fingers off our business. Let people live their lives without interfering. If nobody outside of the immediate self is being affected, let people do what they want.

Farmers should be allowed to drive their tractors on their wide-open farms after drinking as many beers as they want—nobody’s getting hurt! Farmers drunk-driving tractors is very different than youngsters drunk-driving cars. Once the government realizes this, the world will be a better place.

Until next time,

Michael J. Erickson, CEO & Co-Founder
