You're welcome. I guess it is a good thing he wasn't on Tucker Carlson.

You realize I actually like Carlson? He's a dick. He's entertaining. He's not concrete facts. He's an entertainer, not a journalist.

How could we possibly be freest when a politician is ranked by how many laws are to his credit? Probably the most laws on the books because of it. From Wikipedia: "Congress has enacted approximately 200–600 statutes during each of its 115 biennial terms so that more than 30,000 statutes have been enacted since 1789."

I have always thought that if the rule of law was that we could only do what a law allows us to do that we would be able to do anything by now. So much is the compulsion for legislative bodies to make law is.

Wiki does not appear to be accurate..congress, a few years ago, made a committee to just count the # of federal laws..they could not even do that. Its likely >> 30K.

Viva La France, enjoy your baby soup (to the alternate universe where my idea of the rule of law noted here is reality).
