That's probably a good idea.
Government is inherently not supposed to be trusted.
Didn't you learn that growing up in the USA? Unlike most people somehow I recieved a proper education on the founding principles of this nation.
I plan to educate as many people as possible and continue complaing to elected officals until I am imprisioned or sent to a re-education camp because of it.
See my first post in this thread. (and countless others before that)
You justify the next round of loss of liberty by citing the previous loss. All you do is act as an example of the slipperly slope.
If things keep going the way they are going using the arguements you have made, it will be eventually.
A fair number have already posted in agreement with me on how checkpoints are used in the USA. We've all experienced them to one degree or another.
That will change with people like you cheering on government control.
So what? You seem to back tracking efforts, or do you back them for everywhere but where you live?
Through control mechanisms like you are edorsing? Not yet, but they are working on it.
When it comes to controling and tracking the population in a police state that is obvious to anyone with half a brain.
Yes, they die waiting in line unless they can make it to the USA and just pay for it.
China's system is particularly amusing (unless you are subject to it). See, you go to the doctor and you pay full price. If you need surgery you better tip the doctor not to butcher you and then you pay full price. You take the recipt to a government office where they give you an IOU promising that you will be reimbursed. Nobody has ever been. But they have socialized medical care for all.
I've not had trouble controling a car. In fact, I pulled a car out of a situation that has been known to kill professional race drivers. What's your point?
IL demands insurance info at renewal time and random checks too. Still hasn't protected me.
The plates remain physically attached to the vehicle insurance or no. I doubt cops down under go hunting for vehicles once the insurance has expired to remove the plates.
Australia is some magical place where mechanics don't rip people off? Yeah right.
I don't believe austrailia to be full of nothing but the most upright, honest and responsible people. If it were, you'd wouldn't have any of the laws you speak of. But since you do have those laws, it indicates there are irresponsible, dishonest, etc people that these laws seek to stop. Since they exist, I can be reasonably sure there exist dishonest mechanics in that nation.
(Oh, and BTW, having made some attempts to shop for aussie ford parts, I know there are several dishonest operators there selling on the internet, which is only more supporting evidence for the same sort of behavior by many in auto repair-parts businesses in the USA existing there)
All I am buttuming is that Austrailian people are a more or less typical human population. You are telling me they are a perfect uptiopian society without any dishonest mechanics.
