The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

Making murder illegal doesn't stop murder. Making shoplifting illegal doesn't stop shoplifting. I don't really think we should say that since a law doesn't make the impact we would like that we should abandon trying to stop certain practices and behaviors.

All that is possible is to enforce the law to the best of the enforcer's ability. I can't say I am familiar with the practices of Tyson, but if the orders are coming from the top as far as hiring practices then I say we need to find a way to get those callng the shots. May not ever happen. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't enforce the laws at the local level, arresting the fry cook and the employer that blatantly ignores the law.
