You said: "Responsible governmentS are supposed to do things,. . ."

I am not a mind reader, "sweetheart". The plural form of the word does not preclude state governments. Besides, as I said, if licenses were about safety, the tests would be more frequent than ONCE in your lifetime. It's about revenue and control.

Question: Are you always rude when someone disagrees with you?

Okay, so drivers' licenses IS about taxation ; but, it WAS also about safety !

You didn't disagree; your post was superfluous and I don't suffer fools lightly, dear. :-)

He's not rude, he's unrecognizably stupid. He can't even argue his views, such as they are, let alone understand another one's arguments. You'd do better with a street bum holding a Night Train 40.
