If each new model of Anthony Morris is an improvement . . . then versions I and II must have been seriously fucked up.
It's appropriate he compares it to having a drivers licence . . . as motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of death among teenagers in the USA and no doubt most, if not all, developed countries.
Obtaining a driving licence is becoming increasingly difficult, and calls to raise the age of eligibility are only rejected because many at this age are income earning TAXPAYERS who need to drive to earn. So the motivation for setting the driving age so young is financial . . . not the well-being of the teenagers. How ironic!
Recent studies have shown that teenagers are still undergoing frontal lobe development and lack the appropriate levels of judgement and attentiveness needed to drive safely . . . the precise same reason why a life-long commitment to a high-control religious organisation is entirely inappropriate for a teenager.
For a Mk III idiot . . . he makes an excellent comparison, although unwittingly I suspect.
