You Don’t Know What the Law is…

So says John Stossel at Reason: (h/t Insty)

We have 160,000 pages of rules from the feds alone. States and localities have probably doubled that. We have so many rules that legal specialists can’t keep up. Criminal lawyers call the rules “incomprehensible.” They are. They are also “uncountable.” Congress has created so many criminal offenses that the American Bar Association says it would be futile to even attempt to estimate the total.

When there is so much law, it not possible to be in compliance with all of it. Therefore, I am a criminal, and I don’t even know why.

I warned you...
