7. I think we should all follow in Maryland's foot steps

This has already been done.

So it can be done.

I have zero tolerance for ideas that have not been fully implemented in a state.

Now a worthless idea would be us banning the NRA from being allowed to operate in the US. In 2010 they reported 781 employees (125 volunteers - probably unpaid interns because that's probably how those people are) - and I wouldn't want to see them lose their jobs.

I would like them to get their full salaries taxed for Social Security however as a trade off. Now that's something O'Malley is proposing too. And that will impact me too.

See - I'm not selfish. I'll leave that selfish title to others.
For O'Malley! Stellar Aug 2015 #1
