I don't see a problem with mandating Mode C/S in normal spamcans etc (much as this will annoy lots of people, but I've already given my reasons for this) but this business of mandating it much wider, to the "flying machines" that can barely install it or power it, suggests that the person who wrote this is the same clueless person who wrote the "Kick out N-reg" proposal.
I sometimes wonder if these people are hand picked to do a "hatchet job".
