Hey, TOOLS, are we actually allowed intelligent conversation and discussion/debate on this here interweb?
I realize where you're coming from, and I agree . . . and I disagree.
If the government dictates a course be taken then they should bear some or all of the cost. Of course, they'd just say a first-time license is $1,000 to help underwrite the cost [and to add a bit more to their graft -- hmm, did I use my outside voice on that?]. The course was a benefit to me and helped improve my driving skills all around while at the same time lowering my insurance rates. Lots of ways to "encourage" taking the course. Some people need it, for others it'd just be a refresher.
Swimming? Strongly encouraged [I'm waiting for our govts to close public beaches and come up with some by-law for private swimming pools -- lots of deaths every year]. Married? Not a bad idea -- most ministers won't perform the ceremony without pre-marital counselling [and still the divorce rate is 50%]. Then of course there's the NYC by-law forbidding the sale of soda pop [seems strange rolling off my tongue] in cups over 16oz.
The government is indeed just too intrusive. Up here we have "Premier Dad" -- our elected provincial leader has actually embraced the insult and smiles because he does know better than us.
As to worship . . . I actually have an idea where
For the record, I agree with mandated helmets [sorry, Piute] but that's about as far as I go.

"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened." - Winston S. Churchill
Most motorcyclists live more in five minutes than other people do in their entire lives.
when you mix religion with politics you get politics
people say I'm condescending (that means I talk down to people)
