Arthur, You really must get your conspiracies straight! Perhaps alphabetize them, or something.
However, here is something from the Public Integrity website at: http://www.publicintegrity.org/oi/ WASHINGTON, September 24, 2004 - State legislators directly influence the lives of all Americans. The 7,400 lawmakers in state capitals across the country passed more than 42,000 laws in 2003 alone and spent more than $1 trillion in taxpayer money in fiscal 2002. ----------------------------------------------------- Maybe I'll stop quoting the 75,000 pages of the Federal Register and use the annual 42,000 State laws instead. I bet a large percentage of that 42,000 were actually privileges. We are lucky that Classical Political Economy has terms for these things. And how nostalgic - indeed old-fashioned - is the remark of Will Rogers: "Thank God we don't get as much government as we pay for."
