Feuer Frei!

When California’s elected officials come back from their month-long recess they face a mountain of proposed legislation (almost 900 bills are lined up and waiting), including a new law (SB432 (http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/11-12/bill/sen/sb_0401-0450/sb_432_bill_20110216_introduced.html)) that would require hotels to eliminate flat sheets. Not having fitted sheets on hotel beds would now be a crime in California. This is not a joke. . .
California, the state trying to deal with a massive $26 BILLION dollar debt (http://www.scpr.org/programs/patt-morrison/2011/03/16/18283/how-will-californias-26-billion-budget-deficit-aff), is considering a law that some hospitality industry experts claim would add an estimated $15 to $30 million dollars in costs to an already hurting hotel industry. The low-end estimate of fifteen million is the projected cost to purchase new fitted sheets for the 550,000 hotel beds in the state. Of course the hospitality industry is claiming that these added costs will hurt their business and put jobs at risk.
