I really do want something closely hewing to this notion floated in one or more State Congresses. I do not expect that it'd have a hope of passing, but it's shock the socks off of the sheeple.

Why don't you instead try to get what you actually want, and lobby for reciprocity.

It is a waste of energy to be passive-aggressive.

1. I have no idea how to lobby.
2. I suspect lobbying requires time and money - lots of both, neither of which have I much of.
3. I strongly suspect that lobbying another state to change its laws would require political and personal leverage on top of time and money, and I have NONE of that.
4. A cross-license punitive reciprocity policy of the sort I envision would give a state a massive club to wield. Without such a club, why would New York listen to Georgia? I'd call using such a club AGGRESSIVE-aggressive.
5. I do know that a fair number of Georgia lawmakers have a sense of humor perverse enough that they might float this notion, even back it, because it puts a smile on their faces and discomfits their esteemed enemies on the floor. I am assuming that those of you who live in other states know of like men in your own congressses.
6. Floating this idea here and elsewhere requires no energy I require for other endeavors - it beats sitting on the couch watching CNN, yes?
7. Infecting the Net-pop (and, through them, the gen-pop) with this idea is worth that small expenditure of effort. That is how grassroots movements start, after all: with the publication and discussion of new ideas.
