I think blue laws were perhaps well intentioned, but very misguided and counter productive.

I think blue laws had a very weird name.

[C. Edmund Wright]

...Laz, you inspired me to find out why they were called blue laws. Apparently the name was given by those who thought the laws were stupid, back to the 1700s:

the word blue was used in the 17th century as a disparaging reference to rigid moral codes and those who observed them, particularly in blue-stocking, a reference to Oliver Cromwell's supporters in the parliament of 1653.
