And then aggressively prosecute the offenders. Like that will ever happen.

Max, NO! Imagine if they had these cameras during COVID! Seriously, think about that. These cameras aren't for criminals, they're to make criminals.

Vern, dude, it's not about the plates. Its about the information gathered about you, as a non criminal. That data WILL be used against you in so many ways to make you a criminal. Its no different than a 4473. Its a trap bro.

My status of course is to question the validity of yours. So far so good. Thanks for verifying.

No Democrat here. Just an evaluation of your comment stating that license plate are illegal.

Vern, stop thinking like a democrat. You're better than that. The inability to have an abstract thought is truly making me question your status. Please, are you joking about this?

So having license plates on your vehicle makes you a criminal?

Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute, Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!

It will always be that way, because most people make bad choices.

Forgot one important fact ... Reagan and trickle-down economics also put us on the path to huge budget deficits and financial ruin.

Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.

Prior to the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies routinely denied coverage for pre-existing conditions. How exactly does that reduce the quality of coverage?

Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans, Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time. When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.

It would probably be replaced by higher regressive sales tax rates.
