This Pinko bloggy blog blog thingy is principally concerned with the Miracle of Democracy, whenever and wherever it occurs. It is not politically correct, and usually consists of hugely opinionated diatribes on the various vagaries of the Miracle. Vote early! Vote often! All care taken, no responsibility accepted. A work in progress. The Miracle of Democracy is yours, so enjoy!

Govt. sponsored ageism at its very finest
Aghastee's,
How's this for Govt. sponsored ageism at its very finest?
Yesterday, I recieved a notice from the fine folk down at the Roads & Maritime Services division of the NSW Transport Dept. asking me nicely, if I wouldn't mind, to kindly renew my Drivers' Licence.
Fair enough.
Then I noticed in the fine print:
"Ten-year Licences will only be issued to full Licence holders between 21 and 44 years of age".
Now, if my mathematics serves me right, by the Govt's. reckoning, everyone will be pushed out of the igloo and told to fend for themselves at age 54.
Shocked, appalled, angry and upset.
