How Life Has Suddenly Changed in America
Life is suddenly changing in America.
It’s 8:30 AM. I’m getting my 5-year-old son in the car to take him to preschool. I have to drive him down backstreets to school because the police are handing out traffic citations on the main drag, in the wake of downturns in public tax receipts. My son asks why? I tell him the truth. We are avoiding the police on their motorcycles.
I even find that if you live in California you can get a traffic citation and you don’t even need to pull your car out of the garage. Violation VC 14600(A) mandates payment of $214 for failure to notify the Department of Motor Vehicles of address change within 10 days. It’s us versus the public employees now, their job or mine. My son enjoys the drama of trying to avoid the cops and says he will be on the lookout for me.
