This country isn’t free
Why the consternation over the government telling us who can use what bathroom? For years, Washington, D.C., has been in our business, so to speak. Remember when it was determined how much water could be in our toilet tank? Have we already forgotten the government-mandated switch from incandescent light bulbs to fluorescent bulbs? How about “special,” more expensive gasoline in the summer, and the change back to “regular” gas when vacation season is over?
Do we want to even talk about transfats, soda, or mandated vaccinations? We tend to forget that government is involved in your life from the cradle to the grave. You can’t drive, walk, talk, eat, drink or sleep, without some type of government involvement.
If you believe that you live in a free country, please wake up and smell the coffee, also regulated. It is only a matter of time before the government regulates when you go to the bathroom.
