Seriously, it’s stuff like this that makes me advocate for smaller government. I know the government is trying to protect us from improperly made toys, but this is unacceptable.
Someone should point out that the reason American businesses are failing is because none of them can do anything with all this damn regulation.

Seriously, we would do so much better if we just called our clients back when things went wrong, apologized, and fixed them. Why is this so hard for...

Guy 1: Man... debate or class. Debate or class.
Guy 2: You don't know who you're going to vote for yet?
Guy 1: Nope.
