Your turn Real. You operated a vehicle ? The hell you say. I prefer to travel by conveyance. I know that means little, but since we are splitting hairs......... How much is a license and insurance for a horse and buggy ? Wait now, we can't have these Amish people thinking they can do whatever they want now. What's the difference ? A car runs on gasoline using an internal combustion engine for propulsion. In Ohio if it is over five horsepower you "need a license". Well if you have a buggy pulled by four horses you better hope they're not too strong. After all horses eat hay, that comes from the ground. The buggy is not a bicycle because it has more than two wheels. It is capable of killing if misused. Pollution control is in effect as well, as now you must pick your horse's shit up off the road. You can be cited for an equipment violation for various things even in a buggy. They will protect you no matter what you do, even walking. How long do you think it'll be until they require a license to walk ? I talked to a guy from RUSSIA who had never before heard of a fishing license. Ken would probably argue tht the income derived from fishing licenses help maintain nature somehow, as if the government invented it. Perhaps you don't need a fishing license in Russia because all the fish died due to neglect. Amazing how some species' can survive for millenia and just drop dead because we didn't maintain them properly. Russia must truly be a backwards country, I bet all their TVs ar black and white and all their cars are stick shift. Actually do they even have cars ? A license for walking. Well a few years ago on TV I saw an interlude between the boys in blue and someone who was walking down the street. They recognized him as someone who was wanted and said "Hey, we're offering a special today, a free warrant check" so the guy produces ID and gets hauled off to jail for a warrant. You zee his paperes vere not in order ! He must've jumped bail for murder or something huh ? Fucking criminal. Looking at the title of this thread I am starting to think that we are concentrating on driving a bit too much and not getting down to the core. Some people live their whole life without ever driving a car. It's rare now but both of my Grandmothers did it. One had five kids to drive her around and the other took the bus. There is more to life than that. If we keep poking Ken around with the driving issue (pun anyone ? ) he's probably going to crash the findlaw website, and if he is not a subscriber to that he better shut the fuck up. Of course even findlaw is fallible. But the point is rights, not specifically driving. The driving factor (different sense) behind the movement is the realization that none of us own anything. If the can take your house for nonpayment of taxes it is not much better than renting. I met a guy paying $12,000 a year in property taxes. This is in Ohio, here you can easily rent a nice place for a thousand a month. Are the roads and sewers that much better in his neighborhood ? I think not. Because he has a bigger fancier house in a histoical district the taxes are very high. Let me put it another way, THEY have a big fancy house in the right area so the rent is higher. Is the crime lower ? No. Is the crime lower because of superior city services ? Not in that area as far as I can tell. Because of the square footage, type of construction and area, the rent is high. Does he use the sewers and roads more than I ? I don't think so and if you want to talk about sewers, I get a bill for that every four months. He only has one car, I have had as many as five at a time. The taxes he pays allows me to drive over the bridges and roads in his area, why is he paying for my convenience ? I can play both sides of this game, but for now it's _______'s turn. There is so much. There are so many points but one thing is common. People are polarized on this issue to the point that we might as well just run this thread to eternity, there is no sense in starting another. Actually you probably know where those proerty taxes go. They do not go directly to a contractor to build the roads, bridges, city hall and schools. In some communities it augments federal money, which was our's in the first place. They just get control of the money, which is what is really important. The take it and if we're good they will give some of it back. This is the worsest, nastiest business in the world and what it amounts to is a bully taking your lunch money and only giving you back enough for a bag of chips, while he eats a nice steak. Be nice to the bully, or you won't even get the bag of chips. Just shutup and realize that's the way it is. Modern government in a nutshell. Some people seem to like it. I think most of the sheeple would make good subs, they are already servants, working only for the bully. Given a scrap now and then to keep them going. Living just enough for the city. You don't understand Real, that you have only scratched the surface, this situation extends much farther than most can even imagine. People are used to it, and that is one of the reasons they are so easy to manipulate, especially now that the feds have control over our progeny's indoctrination. And as long as people go too far and antagonize the bully, rather than insidiously usurping their indocrination nothing we do means a goddamn thing. That means that AT BEST, with everyone convinced and on the same page, it will be a generation before anything significant is achieved to abate this situation. Fuck, it'll take two generations just to get to that point. Get this, all this shit is a reason for great consternation for me. I have completely lost my lust for life. Perhaps in a way that makes me truly free, which is of little consolation. I am just free to observe the injustice and inhumaniy. I would like to go out in a blaze of glory but for two reasons. For one, there is no one target who's elimination would do any good for the world. I can't gather the pack of bullies up and try the suicide bomber thing. And just going off in any way will just result in the curtailment of more fredoms for those who are left. But now that I think of it maybe that isn't a bad idea, and I have considered it. But what will happen is the next generation will be born into it and accept it just like the sheeple of today. You go ahead and give the bully a black eye, or a bloody nose and make his eyes water. But if you get you head slammed into the asphalt in the playground don't say you were not warned. More power to you, best of luck. I'll be here. So will our resident bully representative. You know who that is. Dig deeper and find out more. Learn until you find out that all this shit is a manifestation of human traits, lust for power over others and wealth. When you really do find the root of the problem you will see it as I do. We as a race are a bunch of kids. Wants outweigh needs, no matter who's. The fact that until people change, nothing will change. In time they will close all the loopholes and resort strictly to selective enforcement and there will be no out. No opting out, no redemption, no nothing. And when you finally realize this, you will know something much more ugly. This country is composed of people who mainly ran away from their problems, not realizing that it is impossible. The problems followed and we will be just like countries where you need a license for a fucking TV set, but people will be born into it. They will think it is the way it should be. They will tell you that the TV tax supports the TV stations and shit like that, just like a fishing license here. People will think that the government actually put the fish in the lake. The government will be their God. If there is a real God who gives a fuck, he wouldn't like it too much. Maybe our follies do somehow cause earthquakes and floods, but I don't think it's because of Gays in the military or Iranian Women showing their hair. Then you can be like me, and want no part of the larger part of humanity ANYWHERE. That is your destination, like it or not. T
