What the proposal for an iron spike mounted to a steering wheel and the one for playing football without a helmet have in common is that they both promote safety through fear.
A proposal is a plan that is offered for the people to think about and choose between the choices given. Some similarities between the two proposals given in the question are:
- They are both dangerous and reckless
- They are designed to correct risky behavior
- They both play on the fear of the participants
The proposal for an iron spike mounted to a steering wheel, known as Tullock's spike is one that states that it be mandated that a big iron spike be mounted on the steering wheel of each car so that in the event of a crash, this would ensure the death of the drivers. The proposal is designed to make drivers so afraid of crashing, that they would drive with extreme care, thus lowering the amount of deaths from car crashes.
This is similar to the proposal to play football without a helmet in that it is just as reckless and also plays on the fear of the players. Players would fear suffering severe head trauma from an unprotected impact, which in turn would cause them to play in a more reserved manner and lessen the likelihood of reckless tackles. This is the hypothesis designed to lower the number of critical head injuries suffered by football players.
The "Tullock's spike" proposal and the proposal to play football without a helmet are similar in that they are reckless, dangerous, and are designed to keep people safe by making them fear the consequences of risks they are taking.
