You posit a valuable and worthwhile hypothesis. I would appreciate it if you could show conclusive evidence that any solo climber of Everest who died requested as you claim that "government go search" when they went missing. Thank you.
- harigov 9y agoI guess I wasn't clear. I didn't mean that the people who are climbing are the ones who are asking govt to go search for them if them go missing. I am talking about people, who in general ask for liberty in such matters while also asking govt to provide search and rescue operations to deal with any fallouts. I am sure you would ask me for data to show conclusive evidence of this happening and my answer is that I have none.
- muninn_ 9y agoThere also isn’t really an alternative - and if I’m paying taxes for the services of course I’m going to use them while I am forced to pay for them. I have no problem paying, personally, but I don’t really like the line of reasoning used in your comment.
