True. I dream of simple 1-paragraph bills, but they always end up as complicated book-length things that do like 5% of what they set out to do. Then we need 1000 of them and a team of lawyers to even come close to accomplishing what a few simple ones would do.

For years, I’ve been fantasizing about a law that says that for every new law that gets made, 2 have to be struck or combined.
