Only the “right” sort of people should be allowed to own cars and drive. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:
Try to imagine a doctor who feels contempt toward his patients. Wait. We don’t need to imagine anymore, do we? Well, how about a car journalist who thinks – who openly says – “most people should not be driving cars”?
Such a one is a guy by the name of Rory Carroll – who writes for the Left-leaning car site, Jalopnik. A Left-leaning car site is itself an interesting incongruity, at least superficially – in that Leftism and private car ownership/enjoyment go together like high fructose corn syrup and good health. But it is superficial, as revealed by Carroll’s offhanded but revelatory statement. He also thinks “most people” ought to be barred from driving “very fast cars on public roads.”
Because guys like Carroll – that is to say, Leftists – consider themselves the arbiters of who ought to be allowed to drive.
And how.
Driving being a conditional privilege, to Leftists.
“Public” roads mean their roads, of course. Not in the technical-legal sense but rather in the operational-control sense, which is ultimately the only sense that has any meaning. Leftists use a mind-fuck trick to get people to accept Leftist control of everything by pretending the “public” owns these things. But the Left – which controls the government – has control over these things and so asserts practical ownership over them. The public – that is to say, you and me and the rest of the proletariat – own nothing because we are in control of nothing.
