But legislating it?!? Not unless they legislate a whole lot of other things - many of which are already listed.
Steve,

I believe that is the main issue. There are far too many other things needed to be addressed in this country by our representatives whether it be at the national, state or local level.

"Legislation" is not the answer to every little pet peeve or concern of a constituent.
