I assume you are being rhetorical, but in a word, no.
Get used to it.
Think, "Brazil".
The paper yesterday said that all our cities are having to lengthen the duration of the “Walk” signs at crosswalks (and at considerable expense and traffic slow-down) — because of new federal regulations!! My God, they now dictate how long our crosswalk “Walk” signs must be lit. There isn’t anything the bastards won’t touch in our lives.”
Is this new time regulation Federal or State of California only? I am confused.
I see it as ‘make work’ so the public sector can hire thousands of people to change the intersections. That ‘creates new jobs’.
After millions of engineering dollars being spent to keep traffic flowing & keep smog down, this will surely upset the entire works. Then all the engineers will have to re-scale the traffic flows.
Nothing can be left alone, can it?
I am expecting a big outcry about how much paper is used for the size of the center roll of my toilet paper. Since the roller is smaller—they could make the carboard center roll smaller, etc.
BTW- While all of you are sending millions of dollars to the Nature Conservancy & the Sierra Club to save all the California REDWOOD trees——the ILLEGAL INTRUDERS in the forests in California have cut down 35 REDWOODS to get a better amount of sunshine onto their illegal grows of marijuana. LEO’s found the growing area——but, as usual, the persons involved ‘got away’.
Where is the outcry from all the Greenies to get these guys into jail forever????
