I agree. It's very difficult to get a government to pass a 'common sense law' given the myriad influences of different alliances, lobbyists, special interests, etc. that seem to corrupt just about any bill that goes before Congress, no matter how well-founded it may be at the very beginning. I'd also much rather have government under-react than over-react. (The former has a lot more flexibility) EDIT: Fixed words
