We claim that no one is upfront with us or that laws are passed without us being told.
In large and varied measure this can be true, but not always.
Many times, pending laws and changes are presented for the public to read and comment upon.

The trash is given quite freely. For news on laws concerning our lives? It’s time to grab a pair of boots and do a little bit of hiking for those.
Any way, this is one of them.
