Listening to news and talk radio on a long drive, I heard a couple of very interesting things. First, apparently the last bill passed by Congress before the recess ordered television stations to not broadcast commercials at louder volume than the underlying program. Now, I find that television behavior annoying, and my late father used to get infuriated over it. But, I can't imagine where the constitutional authority for this stems from.
And, again some regulator decided that street signs must include upper and lower case letters, not just capitals. New York city has over 200,000 street signs, and the cost to change is $27,000,000. Everything about this seems squirrelly, from why all caps isn't just fine, and how the Feds have the power to regulate those details..
