What we need is the guarantee of safe access to intersections, by assuring that every car on the road make sound at the ambient level of the environment. How can we travel safely independently and confidently, when silent cars are cruzing around intersections? Yes the publishing treaty is a step forward, because access to information is essential, and the administration was on the side of the angels on this one. As far as the earnings test, how about a system that will encourage all recipients to return to gainful employment? Insurance isn't a guaranteed income system that's not how insurance works.
