Actions have consequences.
Acts of congress have unintended consequences.
Which is why I'm not thrilled that the outgoing 111th Congress has been so prolific.
As bureaucrats and analysts continue to pore over the thousands of pages of new law this year they will discover new taxes and new regulations. Among the millions of interactions with existing law some will be problematical and some will be bizarre.
And some provisions will have the exact opposite effect of that intended. Which is the theme of this video from reason.tv
Making good law is hard.
And quantity is no substitute for quality.
