I think it is helpful to point out that some laws are poorly written, are pointless, too aggressive, or impossible to comply with properly. When someone realizes that there are laws they themselves break, hopefully they tone down their conv

In New York, the government decreed which business are essential and which are not. Now that the non essential businesses are going out of business, and dragging the rest of economy down with them, they're now a source of sorrow. In F
