Is slower "safer"? What is desired is passivity and torpor. The somnolence and stupefaction of a cow standing in a field, flies alighting on its eyes – the cow too indifferent to even blink.

they claim the 55mph speed limit would save an incredible amount of gas and human lives. It could prevent the need for rationing. I'm ok with it...

Well, if you're ok with it then go right ahead and drive 55. Just stay out of the way of us drivers who are not yet octogenarians.

Thank God the nightmare and reign of terror from Obama and Hillary are now in the past and we are beginning to recover.
Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running.

Used by the Founders...
Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives”
reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in
the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by
the children of the citizens
, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all
their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel

Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day...
America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments...
1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year.
2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges.
3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set.
4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit.

Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates.

Democrats are a WMD, literally.

Probably paid for by the tech companies building self-driving cars that all have to go the same speed limit.

You can only focus effectively on driving for so many hours a day. After that you're a menace. It really doesn't affect focus how fast you drive, so what I'm saying is that you've cut a person's productivity by 1/3 when going from 75 down to 55. We tried it and it was an unmitigated disaster.

When the speed limit on western interstates was raised from 55 to 75, the death and crash rates dropped significantly.

My 7.3 twin turbo diesel can't drive 55.

I lived through the bullshit years of a national double nickel limit and it took forever to get anywhere. Warner is so Jimmy Carter.

You guys need to look at the history behind this. We have been there done that before. If you all want a 55 mph speed limit in your state, then pass a fucking state law. Stay the hell out of Texas traffic. National speed limit! PFT!!

There is no need for rationing, because we don't have a shortage of oil or gasoline. If you really want to save lives, learn how to drive, stop consuming alcohol before getting behind the wheel and stay the hell off your G.D cellphones while you're driving.

Bunch of damn control freaks!

Screw that, I was driving when that stupid crap was around. Try taking a long trip and it will drive you to utter insanity.

Gas is a commodity, it is none of the federal government's business regarding how much of it I use. If we run out of gasoline, the free market will step in and come up with an alternative solution.

Furthermore, there should be no speed limit whatsoever on our Interstate system. If you feel like driving at 150 MPH, then have at it 'hass.

Why? Is there a shortage of oil and gasoline? WTF? He sounds like a fucking idiot. It WOULD have an inflationary effect on the economy as all goods would take longer to get to market.

What an incredible number of just plain ignorant posters on this thread.

Why don't you think of driving 55mph as a way that the average citizen can actually DO something patriotic. Much more effective than wearing a lapel pin BTW.

"I can't drive 55" sounds like Cheney saying the "American way of life is not negotiable".

Except it has to be.

If you want to waste gas send your son/daughter to Iraq to fight for it.

Otherwise STFU.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 331370


We don't have to fight for oil. Just buy it on the open fucking market at the prevailing price. YOU drive 55 and leave me the fuck alone. DO NOT drive 55 in the left lane.
