Brad: $140 CHL, mandatory HPV vaccinations, Trans-TX Corridor, no liquor sales on Sunday, TAKS tests, no tanning beds for 16yo's, criminalizing sex toys, Rick Perry....need more?
$140 CHL. Sure, but that's for FOUR years ($35 a year for the math challenged) that graduates to a 10 years period after the third renewal. Huge discounts for veterans and seniors.
Mandatory HPV vaccinations. Shot down. Ain't happenin'.
Trans-TX corridor? Find me a state that doesn't have a govt program to dislike and I'll move there tomorrow. It's pretty much dead in the water anyway.
No liquor sales on Sunday. I don't like it either, but I have this nifty workaround called "buying what I want someting during the other six days of the week the stores are open".
TAKS test. Every state has some kind of mandatory schooling competency test. And?
No tanning beds for 16 yr olds. That's right, not unless they get their parent's permission. Just like tattoos (which is 18 I think).
Criminalizing sex toys. Local municipalities choice. Stupid choice, but still their choice. Last I heard it was not a choice unique to Texas, either. It just happened to make national headlines from here.
Rick Perry? Meh. Could be worse. We could've gotten Bill White.
