That is paid directly by the taxpayer, and the costs are huge, which is one of the reasons I support helmet usage, seat belt laws, stiffer drunk driving penalties and higher taxes on cigarettes. It's not a matter of judging these acitivities, or the individuals that engage in them.
However, I don't expect extremes like requiring full body armor.
So money is more important than freedom? Cancel government and let's get on with life.
