When you take into account that raising taxes decreases the income coming into the government, I'd say the top two, not just one.

You're also only required by law to have liability insurance, which protects others people's property. If you borrow money the lender, not the gvmt requires you to have the other types of ins. If you don't chose to have a car, you are not required to
have automobile ins.

And why is it required to have auto insurance if you have a car?

it's not , one is required to have auto insurance to drive on public streets, and then only to have insurance to pay for damage one does to OTHERS. one is not required to drive there fore one is not required to have auto insurance.

If I have a car that is never driven then it is not required to be insured.
