Yeah - I wonder if they figured that would happen. This is what happens when ya get policy made by a knee-jerk reaction - exactly what the Founding Fathers were afraid of - read Federalist Ten.

Ya know, there is a method to figure out how this would affect the economy, or at least get a vague idea, even if whomever didn't use common sense to see what the chain reaction would've been. it's called Leontief Input-Output analysis, and yeah, it can get nasty since so many factors have to be considered, but gee - isn't that why we have computers and allegedly enough smart people in high places?

Man... I tell ya... things are in a spiral.
