Later on innovation meant creative ways to bribe elected officials so they'd refuse to pass safety laws, or allow for effective law suits when too many people died horribly from collisions.

If libertarians could read, they'd blame the government as usual.

But seriously, I can't count the number of times they always blame the government for merely existing for being bribed. Like, what is that even supposed to mean? I don't follow the logic. You're not supposed to offer bribes to the government in the first place or you even give one when asked, you bloody bollocks!
