Wow! Today, September 1st, 2011, 673 new Texas laws take effect. I don't know if it's standard operating procedure for the Texas Legislature to pass so many laws in one year (or even if this is all the laws passed for this year) or if they've outdone themselves this year. But I know that I feel a whole lot safer and much love coming from big brother. ;) How about the rest of you Texans? Yee-haw!
Considering the thousands of new laws the Federal government has passed in the last couple years and who knows how many new laws each state has passed, I'll bet, at this rate, it won't take 'em more than a year or two to have virtually every aspect of our lives controlled and laid out for us. Man, won't it be grand when none of us have to think anymore and we can just be told what to do, when, where, and for how long? (Forget that 'why' crap, it's grossly overrated.) I know I can't wait! :rolleyes:
