I think they just have their hands extended in a begging manor from an early age. The UN teaches all poor countries to beg the USA for "assistance". It works after all. We tax ourselves and give it to those who won't ever be able to care for themselves. It is the American dream at work...to FIX everything wrong with everyone else.

 

The UN, our real enemy.

 

Buying a typical 16 yo an SL55 is just plain stupid -- unless you want to kill your kid, of course...

 

...and should be booted out of my country!

Why did the Rockefeller family give them all that land to build a shinny building? I think the simple explanation is money funneling to the rich through the UN. The rich are taxed to death and business is handed to them by the UN which is supported by their money.

 

More commonly they kill a friend or two, or a totally innocent stranger. He'll be drinking some night and take a friend for a thrill ride and kill the friend and total the car. He'll walk away with just a bruise and if he's on the football team everyone will feel sorry for the little **** and some weak-willed judge will give him 40 hours of community service for commiting murder.

 

His daddy's insurance will replace the car too. [:@]

 

I think they should be booted as well, but into oblivion. It won't do any good if they just operate from another country--same crap, different place. They need to be disintegrated into their elementary parts and spread across space where no one can hear them whine.

 

On the other hand if he is never exposed to the car and never learn how to properly drive it, it can be disasterous at any age. www.wreckedexoctics.com shows pretty good examples of when rich people get these high powered cars and don't know how to drive them. And on this site the average driver isn't some high schooler. These are well off middle aged people that think they know everything and think that the young people are the problem to everything. This shows that even the adults, or so called responsible adults do some stupid things and or just plain wreck thier car. Of course you have a few teen-age stupid act results on that site but majority of it is from middle aged adults.

so whether the kid learns to drive the car now or later it doesn't matter, just hope he have a good teacher and have a good head on his shoulder. Not all teens that get get some fancy car wanna go out there and rink and then drive. Not even most of them. Too bad that them that do seem to get more attention then the responsible ones.

 

But that is the American way.

 

There's a difference. What's more dangerous? A 16-year-old with an SL55 and no driving experience or a 40-year-old with an SL55 and 24 years driving experience? Surely you can see the difference? I'm not saying driving a Honda Civic for 24 years teaches one how to drive a supercar with confidence and finesse, or that 40-year-olds never get in an accident, but it teaches you a lot. The 16-year-old knows nothing, yet. Ask any insurance company or the Institute for Traffic Safety. Everyone knows that 16-year-olds with no driving experience at all don't know how to drive and shouldn't be trusted in a high-performance car and is more likely to crash it than a 40-year-old. The insurance rate for the 16-year-old with no driving experience will be much higher than for the 40-year-old with 24 years experience. That's based on statistics that show that 16-year-olds are more unable to handle high-performance cars than 40-year-olds. Plain and simple.
