Comment | When and where does government oversight end and personal reponsibility begin. This type of proposed government regulation is seizing the wheels of progress and killing this country. The next proposal will be to give 10,000 illegal aliens minium wage to travel the landscape with air tanks filling up every under pressure tire. STOP IT! Mandate a new tire design, auto inflators, something that can be packaged with the vehicle and built into it's initial cost basis. Educate the consumer. Mandate tire fill stations at all gas stations. Install tire inflation centers along with the new government run smog stations, service centers, tire centers, health centers, etc. STOP IT! The reality is...I go to the dentist and he checks all my teeth not just one tooth, I buy groceries and they bag them for me, my home HVAC guy checks my whole system once a year not just the filter. I still have to brush my teeth, put the groceries away, maintain my thermostat in a responsible manner. When my cuctomer comes in for service, I service his/her vehicle including checking the tires... If I have to add an employee with enough brains to write up, fill up and document every car that comes in for the mandated tire pressure check the math is simple...$15 hr/employee, 20% load = $37,000 year divided by 72 cars a week is $10/customer. The customer is going to love this! This is ridiculous. I cannot believe I am actually having to take the time to write this comment. I actually harbored some thread of trust, a belief in my elected officials that this dialogue going on is the type of thing you hashed out internally and put in the round file for it's total lack of merit before evere getting to this point. STOP IT! |
