Satire: “Traffic Lights” and the Left’s Destruction of American Mobility Posted by By Michael Kupietz January 3, 2024| Permanent URL: https://michaelkupietz.com?p=8619You know what I hate? “Traffic lights”.What gives the GOVERNMENT the RIGHT to tell ME when I can stop or go?!? Government shouldn’t be standing in the way of American mobility, that just hurts everybody.The only way to increase American mobility is free traffic. Get government out of it, and let the traffic participants just sort it out naturally. Let free competition between drivers determine traffic, so nothing stands in the way of drivers getting where they need to go.And besides. If the best drivers can get where they’re going quicker, they’ll spend the time they save giving slower drivers a ride. A faster current speeds up all boats.While we’re at it, what’s with this “9 AM”, “10 AM”, “11 AM”, “Monday”, “Tuesday”, “Wednesday” thing? Now government is going to tell ME what to CALL my TIME?!? Michael Kupietz It is I! Mike Kupietz, a reluctant scion of the postmodern age, is larger on the inside than the outside: perhaps not a composer, but a creator and arranger of sounds, nor a writer, but an avid writer-down; an occasional author of doggerel; an erstwhile urban hermit; and privately a man of great ardor. He is, if now resigned to never succeeding at those personal and artistic pursuits he holds most dear, unwavering in his determination to fail at them as entertainingly as possible. He is currently in what he calls the "red bathrobe period" of his life. If you're wondering what all this has to do with FileMaker development—you done taken the wrong turn, this river don't go to Aintry. Mike's professional services are on his Bay Area FileMaker Pro consulting website.
