I heard an ad on the radio for some car insurance company yesterday. It was about how they offered a plan where they would only bill you for the miles that you drive instead of a flat rate. Almost reflexively I start to think of what fucked up reasoning they would have to even offer this. At a glance it sounds good because it is framed that way but anyone not smoothbrained knows that this is not what it seems. Now we know.
That's just how they're slow-rolling it to normalize the idea. It will be mandatory soon enough.
