rights, many think/feel that rights are able to do anything they want until they get caught, and then its someone / something else's fault? reeks of entitlement, or ODD. . .
However, what the free license versus testing by govt comes down to is whether the government wants to be proactive or reactive. Government is inherently reactive, ie, your are innocent until proven guilty. we all love that, because the alternative is a negative proactive stance by oppressive governments.
the legal system is reactive, so yes, a proactive testing system is ideal for safety, but is expensive and somewhat counter to the concept that you are innocent until proven guilty. Why? people have twisted the concept of innocent to be interpreted as a right or an entitlement, but that argument doesn't stand up in a court of law, most times for the average non billionaire.
I reacted negative in my mind to Grumpy once because he disagreed with me, and I know that he is still wrong
as he typed theory versus reality in my little area of knowledge, but, I read and learn from his comments, because he knows more than i do in many more areas, and I can learn something from everyone, thankfully. . . I am not so entitled to believe that bbs board members can't disagree with me or can't know more about topics than I do, ie, i don't take his typing personally . . .
