It is like tiny spider silk tying a person down. One thread at a time. Until he can't move.

Each thread is nothing, but they make hundreds of them each year. And each one takes years of court work to get removed.

If I had 51% of the congress as my personal friends, we would stop any new bills, and start reviewing old laws. This would take us years, unless we blanket did away with all laws between 1912 and 2012. And so, I do not feel this is a possible solution. Which leaves burning it all down, also not so good.
