Unless you’re independently wealthy and could not careless about the average American citizen, ALEC substantively makes your life worse. And that’s over the short term only. In the long term, ALEC policies hasten the death spiral of the US economy.

I broke down & bought 3 cases of diet coke (they were on sale & I am out at the office) at Walmart but at least this was not on my Christian blog. 🙁

1) Oreos are delicious.

2) They are supporting the strength of their base with laws like those.

As an aside, can anyone explain to me why an organisation that promotes “business friendly” legislation would support anything to do with firearms (either for or against)?

I’d have thought firearm control was a social matter, surely?
