Eddie the Jaw there jumped in to toot the horn of his great-great-great-great-great grandmother who was on the throne when her country followed the example of its neighbors and decided to start having public schools. Because it was an absolute monarchy at the time it was technically her decree, and it may even have been an idea she worked to publicize or to smooth acceptance of, but it's pretty tangential even before you realize that the guy just spends his days idly doing "miss us yet?" at the internet.

i can't believe we all thought butt was unqualified for this job just because he has no relevant education or experience. he is a master of the only two skills that matter- comical ineptitude and cruel, pointless loving over of poor people.

Hovercraft posted:nah people would go nuts if you were forced to go visit a guy and pay him money in order to do your taxes every year I live in Virginia and it has both a required annual car inspection and a personal property tax based on the blue book value of the car. I imagine they could implement something mile-related pretty easily, just have the inspector send the odometer reading to the state. Not saying it's a good idea but I could see it being feasible here.

I imagine they could implement something mile-related pretty easily, just have the inspector send the odometer reading to the state. 35 states don't do inspections and it looks like virginia has something like 1 in 5 cars who skip inspection entirely i'm from louisiana and while they say that it's 1 in 3 cars out of inspection there, i suspect it's much higher even though it "only" costs like $15

Those requirements all vary by state though

You have to have working windshield wipers but only if you have a windshield, which is itself optional.
