It is not easy, by any means. Even as simple an act as renewing a post office box with a postmaster who knows you on sight becomes impossible, or nearly so.
I have a drivers license, driving is a choice, not something you have to do.
When it expires, as I can no longer drive, I will no longer have one.
If it is made mandatory, I will not get one, if mailed to me, I will burn it.
I am an American... what that truly means, not what it has become.

And so what does it truly mean? 'True' Americanism has been getting its ass handed to it on a silver platter for the last decade, and I'm not talking about the war or our government there.

You are right... it is a shame, not many of us left. Does not lessen the honor of being one or the responsibility.

Modern music, for me.
Compulsory blacklisting anyone with a high BMI so they couldn't order pizza or buy fast food. Which would of course include me.

Like the Pubwatch schemes we have here in Leicester - "banned by one, banned by all"

Whenever I see a big group of protesters going on about how horrible everything is, I'm struck by one point of similarity -- they're all able to take the day off of work. I'm jealous...I want to be oppressed, too.
