The Florida Tomato Committee, which consists of twelve of Santa Sweet’s competitors charged that the Ugly Ripe was ruining the reputation of Florida produced tomatoes and promptly blocked all transit of the variety from Florida into other states.<<<

That should wake up the country, things are getting out of control.

This type of law is impacting us, in more ways than most realize and I don’t like the thought of it.

LOL, I have Yuba, Calif, I think, it says Sutter County Sheriff on the scanner, they had cops on alert, a caller said shots fired and there was a cop car in their area, but they didn’t know who was shooting.

Roll Call, showed no cops in that area.

Then came the call to cancel the shots, the lady had found the trouble, it was a CAT on her screen door.

This is what's dangerous about legislation (vs. law). Legislation is arbitrary regulation passed to rectify some issue that has come up. But legislators are susceptible to persuasion by lobbyists, etc. and can end up causing more problems than they solve. I remember reading a story about a company exempted from a sweeping law in Illinois that crippled its competitors. The legislation read: “All companies except those founded on Month Day, Year are subject to this regulation.” It's a corrupt practice that can put small companies out of business.

In school, they don't teach students about the difference between law and legislation, and it's a crucial difference. I could go on, for a long time, but I won't. LOL
