We're From the Government and ...

Louisiana just suffered massive flooding and thousands were forced out of their homes and businesses by flood waters. First responders were overwhelmed but into the breach floated the "Cajun Navy" - people with their own boats who cranked them up and started rescuing people from their homes and getting them to safety. 

A grateful Louisiana government has rewarded them with a new bill to require training, permit fees (of course) and licenses before being allowed to perform such humanitarian acts in the future. I am constantly amazed at the new and innovative ways that government never misses a chance to screw things up.
