Austrian Economics in a Hoosier World

America Has To Many Laws

Every year the federal government piles on more laws that Americans must follow.

There are so many laws on the books that I don’t even take the most “pro law” person serious anymore because it would be scientifically impossible for them to read them all.

Laws being created at this rate add a burden to an economic society and wastes tax dollars. REAL people paid by taxpayers sit around and devise these laws.

Without further ado, I’m posting some of the laws created by the United States federal government via A Crime a Day Twitter feed:

18 USC §1865(a) & 36 CFR §2.16(f) make it a federal crime to make an unreasonable gesture to passing horses or pack animals on public land.

7 U.S.C. §2149(d) & 9 C.F.R. §3.41(c) make it a federal crime for a hamster dealer to needlessly tilt a hamster’s cage while in transit.

40 USC §5104 & 36 CFR §702.2(c)(4) make it a federal crime to have such offensive personal hygiene that it disrupts the Library of Congress.

27 U.S.C. §207, §205(e) & 27 C.F.R. §4.39(a)(9) make it a federal crime to sell wine with a brand name including the word "zombie."
