Regulating the U. S. to Death

The U. S. has always been a country built on entrepreneurs. A country built on the backs of those with the genius and the balls to step out and try new things. Ben Franklin- Thomas Jefferson- Benjamin Banneker-

So when entrepreneurs are being regulated out of business for "safety" you have to demand more answers from the lawmakers. The "safety" laws are targeting people who have always been part of the solution-- and are failing to cover the large companies who have put profit over people.

Washington Court: Teachers Can Have Sex With 18 Year Old Students
This one wouldn't cost anyone anything but will protect kids. I like how blogger Christine puts it:

I’m getting sick and tired of seeing all these stories about teachers having romantic relationships with students. I don’t care if the student is of age or not. He/she is still a student. Teachers are in a position of authority. And they are the adult. They are supposed to be the one with their head on straight. The one making good, responsible decisions. The one guiding students to do the same. They are supposed to be role models. Not sexual partners.

Teenagers are still learning and experimenting. They often make bad and impulsive decisions. They don’t always think with their heads…if you know what I mean. They have raging hormones and a relationship with an older lover seems like a dream come true to them.
