I may be biased from seeing what I see in my state, lol. Families have to beg them to stop driving after they crash into a building, no political will exists to change things. There's more states than I thought that require additional driving exams, at least in certain circumstances.

In the US, it seems supporting policies that make the elderly retake the driving exam is complete political suicide. There is a good reason for it and it would keep people safe, but there's no chance of it happening while the population that mostly votes is old.

4.7 million sounds like a typo honestly. 47 million would make more sense considering that many people need their own PC to do freelance work.

I'm doubting that many people will suddenly see the benefits of PCs over phones and tablets in order for these numbers to blow up, but I could be wrong. It seems that mobile devices fill that need for most people and it's been that way for a while. Given the tariffs though, it may be a comparatively better time to get a PC for gaming than an Xbox or PS and that could bring the numbers up.

Lol I remember eMachines. Integrated graphics on a desktop tower and the thing sounded like a leafblower under load. Also I believe it wouldn't support a dedicated GPU either.
