In my high school “Humanities” class my very liberal teacher asked the class what law they would pass if they could pass only one.
Most of the kids gave the standard suck-up responses but when she got to me I replied, “If I could only pass one law it would be that for every new law passed four would have to be eliminated”.
My lefty teacher was shocked, “Why on earth would you do such a thing?!”
“Simple” I explained, “We already have too many useless laws on the books. Tons of them don’t make any sense now, even if they ever made sense to begin with.”
“So Congress would have to pick four laws - at random if they like - and eliminate them. In due time they would get to the point where they would actually have to think about the laws they were enacting.”
She flunked me...;-)
No wonder why the others sucked up.
