Funny. That lie is what we've now been told for years, and now that it is inconvenient for the powers that be, suddenly it's no longer true.
Anyone who buys into the concept of our God Given Right to Travel somehow being a revocable privilege completely misreads the entire concept of liberty. I'm not going to argue the issue, as the point is moot because the state will kill you for exercising your common law right to travel without their "permission". The power emanating from the barrel of a gun always trumps truth.
The right to travel really isn’t infringed here (well getting on a commercial airplane I’ll grant you and also agree that’s a violation of our rights) a drivers license only blocks operating a motor vehicle unless you can prove you can actually operate a car and have the health to do so.
Once again though - if you’re an illegal immigrant you get a drivers license because “it’s unfair to their livelihood” but if you get a DUI after one drink you’ll be banned from the roads for life and we don’t care if it puts you in the poorhouse.
