Not Ranked
I can still perform most of the work on my F250 PS, or my wife's Edge, and I do not have anyone helping me besides the local auto parts place or my local Ford dealership where I bought the vehicles.
I am sick of new laws+bigger government=more taxes.
The OP started this off with Boxer's idea in California, hasn't California gotten tired of their state government writting checks that the tax payers have to back?
Today it's Joes Garage, tomorrow it's something else, and the day after there is another new emergency or an un-fair process that needs to be righted. All the time we walk further into tyranny.
A good example is the Amber Alert system in Missouri. Now including myself, who could be against protecting our children? Yet the system of electronic billboards goes widely unused for the purpose for which they were built. In St. Louis proper, they have only been used once, and that was a false alarm. Instead we get "You Drink, You Drive, You Loose", or the popular "Click-it, or Ticket" on the billboards. What do those cost? Now you can sign up to get Amber Alerts on your cell phone (I signed up on the first day), which costs almost nothing to operate. The billboards however...
But it seems like a good idea......
