    > We already have Ignition Interlock Devices which tell you how aligned you are and whether or not you need to improve your alignment score before starting the car.
I didn't know about "Ignition Interlock Devices". Wiki tells me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_interlock_device

    > breath alcohol ignition interlock device (IID or BAIID) is a breathalyzer for an individual's vehicle. It requires the driver to blow into a mouthpiece on the device before starting or continuing to operate the vehicle.
Can you explain your concern about this device? Also: How do you feel about laws that require drivers and passengers to wear a seatbelt?

Also: Can you share a legitimate reason why you need to use cash in transactions over 10K EUR?



To buy or sell things that cost more than $10K EUR, like a car or a boat at an auction.

The government only needs to be aware of taxable income, not every financial transaction you make. If you purchase a car in cash with post-tax money, it is none of the government's business.

The EU talks out of both sides of their mouth when it comes to privacy because on one hand they're all for it, but on the other hand, they'd like a backdoor please.

The digital ID standard being implemented is more faithful to these principles: you can generate a proof from your ID that you are 21 without having to give a stranger your home address.


For buying shit. That you don't want some EU person in an office to know you bought. Which should be a fundamental human right.
