To politically conservative me it&#8217;s another laughable example of how local and state governments are assuming control over the simplest matters of our personal lives. It&#8217;s what some of us like to call the Nanny State. Of course, blaming &#8220;government&#8221; in a generic sense is easy and fashionable. The fact is, they do these things because a lot of people want them to.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t a political column, it really isn&#8217;t. Though I do think it is worth noting that San FranNanny (oops, sorry&#8230;that just slipped out) has already banned McDonalds Happy Meals and has an issue on next November&#8217;s ballot that would outlaw circumcisions. (I know&#8230;right?)<\/p>\n<p>And now, phone books.<\/p>\n<p>From the reactions I read on Facebook this morning it seems a lot of people are spitting mad about having to dispose of a phone book they didn&#8217;t ask for and won&#8217;t use. I&#8217;m not kidding, this is a big deal to some folks. Personally, I think a phone book is very easy to throw away and as it doesn&#8217;t happen more than occasionally it&#8217;s just not high on my list of things that stress me out.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t use phone books anymore, except very rarely to balance a table with one short leg. Since you&#8217;re reading this on a computer you probably don&#8217;t use phone books, either, but a lot of people still do. How do I know that? Easy. Phone books will disappear from American life when they cease to be profitable.<\/p>\n<p>As I thought about it I realized there are a couple of fairly serious issues at hand here. First of all, if we&#8217;re going to ban phone books from being dropped on the porch, why stop there? How about outlawing junk mail? Ye gads! I have to throw that stuff away every single day! It&#8217;s enough to make a preacher spit!<\/p>\n<p>And what about those business cards people leave in my screen door offering to mow my lawn or fix my plumbing? And free weekly local newspapers I didn&#8217;t subscribe to and the Pennysaver?<\/p>\n<p>I have to put that stuff in a trash can all by myself!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-zfAVohnYp78\/Td_tY9EylfI\/AAAAAAAAA5g\/h7RD-hUH2no\/s1600\/girl%2Bscout%2Bcookies.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-zfAVohnYp78\/Td_tY9EylfI\/AAAAAAAAA5g\/h7RD-hUH2no\/s1600\/girl%2Bscout%2Bcookies.jpg?w=840\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>As long as we&#8217;re passing laws to restrict people&#8217;s ability to advertise their products and services because old-fashioned neighborhood commerce now annoys us, I say it&#8217;s high time to crack down on those pesky Girl Scouts hawking their damned cookies outside the supermarket. (That&#8217;s not only annoying, it&#8217;s deadly! Have you read the caloric and sugar content on those boxes? Somebody needs to file a class-action suit against these cute, young tools of corporate America!)<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m being sarcastic and silly, right? Somebody will do it. Mark my words, before much longer somebody will stop Girl Scouts from selling their cookies.<\/p>\n<p>My money&#8217;s on San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p>If phone books on the porch are one of our biggest problems I think America is in far better shape than I imagined. On another level, though, I am a bit worried about our society.<\/p>\n<p>It seems to me we&#8217;re becoming awfully self-centered, lazy, pissy and intolerant of each other.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>(A note from the author, two days later&#8230;<\/em><\/strong><em>My son&#8217;s mother-in-law has made an excellent point in referring to this phone book &#8220;ban&#8221; as an opt-out requirement. After thinking about it for a few minutes I realize that my problem with this &#8220;ban&#8221; may be in the use of that word and in that, I may have jumped to an erroneous perspective. I don&#8217;t know how the ordinance was written. If, in fact, it requires phone book companies to ask people if they want one I now realize I would support it wholeheartedly. The Happy Meals ban and the proposal to outlaw circumcisions are different, though. They deny people goods and services they may want.&#8221;)<br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember telephone books? Well, of course you do.
