Albany set to pass yet another jobs-killer

[Madmallard]

It seems the Legislature doesn’t think people are fleeing New York fast enough: Lawmakers are set to pass yet another jobs-killer on Tuesday.

The bill aims to ban toys containing “dangerous” chemicals — via an expansive regulatory scheme that gives the state Department of Environmental Conservation a broad mandate to ban chemicals with no regard for how much risk they actually pose to consumers or how much of one the product contains.

Even minuscule amounts of a substance that’s only harmful in much higher quantities would trigger a ban.

I just saw this story this morning, not quite sure what to make of it. But I will say this about Neverbright, he's a real piece of work. I don't know where these pols find the time away from real work to sit around and dream up solutions to problems that don't exist. Ever spend time on the NYS legislative website and read some of the shit these clowns produce? They don't even know how to be embarrassed. True arrogance or ignorance, or as I say, igno-arrogance.

So they ban them within the state, go shopping in Pennsylvania or order on Amazon. Are warehouses going to have ship/no-ship list? The bogus law gives administrative power to a government agency. Death by bureaucracy.

Glad I have pre-ban Legos burried in my backyard.

Toxic, logic challenged politicians are NY's problem.

In school we learned about carcinogens and "litogens."

Carcinogens are compounds that have been scientifically proven to cause cancer.

Litogens are compounds that have been proven to cause harm through court litigation.
