Also, Asprain and related drugs kill ~40,000 people a year so I don't know it the pain relief is worth it. http://adjusthealth.info/health-news/89-40000-deaths-in-usa-...
Aspirin is an OTC and thus excluded from those mortality statistics.
Additionally most of those deaths were from elderly people who suffer from arthritis and are taking NSAIDs daily and longterm.
Overall that is a very misleading headline.
Plenty of people don't think the added safety of seat belts is worth it, the minor fine related to not using them seems like a tiny risk in comparison to dismemberment or death. However, many of those same people fear the fine more than physical harm which seems silly to me. Perhaps, if I was more empathetic I would 'get it', but I don't run things so I don't really feel the need to.
Note: I am suggesting that the law needs to change or anything, just that I don't understand why people think in that fashion.
