Wisconsin people did, too.
Tim Strobel has been driving a tractor for 20 years, so he's a bit puzzled that federal officials are kicking around an idea that could ultimately force him - and anyone else operating farm machinery - to get a commercial driver's license.
...The U.S. Department of Transportation has been collecting public comments on the notion, which the agency insists doesn't yet merit being called a "proposal."
This is the "Mind" which is "Elite, Educated, and Oh-So-Much-More-Intelligent" than you.
No, that "Mind" never met common sense--but that doesn't matter; the Mind was educated at Hah-vahd, or Yale, or some other place where all the better "Minds" are educated.
The additional public safety gained from increased federal regulation is unclear at best, but the additional costs for farmers would come at a time when they could least afford them, Brancel said in a letter to federal officials.
As Prof. Codevilla said: "Who the Hell do you think you ARE?"

Uh, Jimbo:
Asking for 'comments' is the usual initial step in proposing new regs.
The fact that some BOZO actually took it far enough to "ask for comment" tells me that my post is accurate; the DC "mind" is still in full-zombie mode.
