Streamlining laws

Every year new laws and bills are created.  Many stay with us for decades until a conflict or discrepancy draws attention to them.  Others have complex loopholes or work negatively in combination with other bills.  Those involved in Law must study and memorize countless volumes of laws that accumulate each year.

Why can't the government take a step to streamline their backlog of laws and bills, taking out redundancies and obsolescence.  The more bills that get added, the more government turns into a manipulative bureaucracy of stagnant tedious paperwork.  Like Canada.

He has a point.  If we ensure everything we do isn't excellent, but rather mediocre, then we can intentionally limit ourselves using mediocre music and films, mediocre novels found at airports, mediocre politicians, mediocre cars, mediocre low income communities, and mediocre citizens.

If we were all "excellent" and were all "the best," what else would we have to do besides take someone else's property and rights?  There has to be the excessively rich and the excessively poor, and the mediocre middle, in order for society to function.  Without it, we all become the same social class without significant ability to look down on others.

Mediocrity is the perfect control system.
