The other side of that metaphor is that even a criminal record (one not related to driving, of course) doesn't bar you from owning a car and having a driver's license. And I don't care for national laws that require the wilds of Maine to live by Atlanta (or Chicago, or D.C.) standards. You got a problem in Chicago, make a law in Chicago.

However, I'm more worried about the habitual Democratic administration's problem with my right to keep and bear money.
