What’s next? No driver license if you don’t have a college degree?
You're right and it's nothing more than extortion.
The Feds did it for years by denying highway funds to states that didn't drop their speed limits from 65 to 55.
It's also in Obamacare (you 'vil buy der insurance or else) and since the gov't now owns student loans, that'll be the next "hammer" to force a behavior .

Many people hear the initial idea and think, “that’s a good idea”. However, I choose to look more down the line. If they can deny a driver’s license based on level of education, then they can increase that level. Not only with the amount of education but other things like employment. I am sure there is some person in government thinking, “stay at home Moms don’t really need licenses” or “you don’t need a license if public transportation is available to you”. Scary when even some FReepers think taking away a privilege based on nothing is a good idea.
