Maybe we need to find a way to take some descision making power out of the hands of regulators and put it in the hands of voters. I don't think most people would actually vote for most things in the AR agenda but the AR organizations can easily influence the regulators with their money.

Another thing is, and I know USARK is already doing this, is to make taxpayers aware of how much of their tax money is actually going to have to be spent on the administration and enforcement of these laws. Citizens need to be made aware too that not only does it cost money to make and enforce these laws but that when pet stores, private breeders etc. go out of bussiness there is a whole domino effect. The bussiness' former owners and their employees not only no longer have money to spend and put into the economy but they may also need to go on unemplyment and/or other forms of public assistance while they transition into a new line of work. These days that transition period seems to be lasting longer and longer too.
