i think they should set a maximum limit on the number of laws (the total number; not how many new ones they can add).
then, if congress wants to add a new one, they have to eliminate an old one.
the maxlimit should be set at about half of what we have now.
congress could then focus on figuring out which laws to eliminate until they get it down to the max allowable.
they would have to delete 25% of the surplus laws each year, until they get it down to the maxlimit.
if they fail to delete enough in any single year, laws would be deleted at random.
this would solve most problems in this country.

LMAO! Wouldn’t that be a hoot. Just number all the laws and throw them in a hat and draw some out.

You could watch the RATS have a stroke as they drew out laws on special taxes etc.

Excellent ideas.
