You're just anti government in general. And you have no good reason to be.
You are legally obligated to insure yourself as a driver just about everywhere.
Failing to do that is illegal, and for good reason.
If you're driving uninsured and the worst case scenario happens (huge crash, 500k+ damages), most people cant afford to compensate the victims.
So to make sure victims dont get ****ed, you force drivers to pay based on an actuarial estimate of how high risk you are. You're paying for your "expected" damages (ideally). I dont think anyoen who is informed doesnt believe these laws are absolutely necessary.
That's the basic premise for why people should be legally obligated to insure dogs that pose a non-trivial risk to people living near them.
If a dog is well trained, he would perform well at the evaluations and your insurance rates would be significantly lower. But the risk is never zero, and you can't just put your neighbors in the line of fire because you get hard for big breeds of dogs.
