remember- LABELS ARE BAD..... such as

Not necessarily true, but probably true is that the guy flying the $10K airplane has more expendable income than 99% of all participants in this hobby. When I drive I drive like everyone else wants to kill me personally. I have never been in an accident.
Your assumption of jet flyers is overstate - wrong - and dividing.
My assumption??? I never mentioned "jets". Why do you "assume" I'm talking about jets. If I spent a year building a model I would value it at far higher than a mere $10K. Are you going to pay me $20K for my time even though materials "only" cost $500.00??? I doubt it.

I AM POOR therefore I should not be held fully accountable for my actions- That is ludicrous...

Just because you cause damage by accident does not release you from liability- You may not be able to afford 10,000 up front. But I bet you could pay $6.00 every week for 1666 weeks.
You shouldn't make blanket statements and assumptions. I might not be able to afford to pay $6.00 a week. Maybe I can afford to pay $1.00 a month for 10,000 months. If that would make what you assume to be a jet guy happy then fine.
