Pennsylvania has made it both difficult and dangerous to purchase liquor.
Much of the response to this has been insane (and unconstitutional, and power grabby).

A history lesson relevant to the current crisis.
The Suburban Stasi
Yes, this makes me want to go out for a drive just as a big FU to der Staat.

These businesses should file suit on Constitutional grounds: There is no law against doing business, even in Los Angeles.

Everyone jumps off bridges after following government guidelines to jump off bridges.
The FISA Court
…is (finally) dropping the hammer on the corrupt FBI.

His latest on the lawsuit, in which we are still in discovery.

Here is McIntyre’s Twitter thread.
The FISA Scandal
It’s about corruption, not “sloppiness.”
Yes. It’s a shame that Horowitz can’t be more forthright about that.
The FDA’s Death Toll
It’s long past time to track it.
Bureaucracy kills.

I should add that, when this is over, we should have a national commission to review all federal regulatory actions and legislation, and see how much of it is still necessary (if it ever was) and how much of it is actively harmful (e.g., plastic-bag bans) with little benefit/cost ratio. At least we never got that nonsense at a federal level. So it would also be useful to examine state-level regs, for info purposes for those states. But unfortunately, contra bulls**t claims from the Democrats about being the “party of science,” this nonsense will likely continue.
Free-Market Health Care
How would it respond to the virus?
It’s been many decades since there’s been anything resembling a free market in this country’s health care, other than things like Lasik.

Speaking of (lack of) free markets, restaurants in Los Angeles are being shut down for selling groceries without a license.
Government seems determined to put business out of business.

Regulatory Relief
…can save lives.
A lot of regulations are merely special-interest rent seeking.
[Late-morning update]
Trump is rolling back fuel-efficiency standards.
He should eliminate them, if possible, but that would probably require legislation. They are an idiotic relic of the energy crisis, almost half a century ago. In my opinion, they’re unconstitutional, or should be. Same with toilet specifications.
