Trying to wrap one's head around the federal government's exhaustive effort to so thoroughly inundate every facet of American existence, is truly a daunting challenge.

If you like your volunteer fire department, you can keep your volunteer fire department. LOL. Had enough yet America? A new routine, in 2014!
That's just unbelievable...but, by now, nothing from this administration surprises me.
