Blame Barbie

Again, when lawmakers sweat the small stuff, it leaves their prying hands out of the economy. So when West Virginia debates the possibility of banning Barbie dolls, can I be terribly upset? Perhaps-- there's a number of structural changes that need to occur here in West Virginia before growth comes about. Then again, they're not making things worse...half-empty/half-full, I suppose.

The implicit assumption is that women are too weak to handle the fact that they can't actually look like Barbie, but men are strong enough to handle the fact that they can't actually look like He-Man.

Just trying to understand their assumptions.

I agree, they should spend lots and lots of time debating this.
