It's Official: Massachusetts Has Dementia

Ah, but you see, this only postpones things. They will keep trying until they get what they want.

Whenever I read stuff like this, speaking of the proposed plan to ban bake sales in the increasingly insane state of Massachusetts, it reminds me of the petty buffoons who represent human activity in political institutions. How simple is thy mind to think or correlate the consumption of cupcakes to obesity? That somehow bringing stricter rules of diet in schools will somehow reduce the alleged obesity epidemic.

It's pathetic. And it takes a pathetic, pitiful mind to somehow believe this to be intelligent public policy. To think that someone actually proposed this.

Why stop at cupcakes? Why not, hey, pasta? All those complex carbs, well you know, fattens up little kids everywhere, right?

This, to me anyway, is an example of why we must always guard our personal liberties. All we've done is embolden Leviathan.

You can't legislate your way into a "better" society. I believe the reverse takes effect. The more numerous the laws, as it's been said, the more chances at corruption. The more you burden people  with laws the less you will get out of them.

With all the major social ills that face us all, Massachusetts shows well how far up our collective heads are buried deep within our asses.
