Who creates the adorable acronyms for legislation? The RAVE act to thwart venues where drugs are commonly sold? The CALM law against the ear-piercing volume of commercials? I’ve got one: I propose the RAMEN Act, Resolution Against Making Education Non-affordable.

Governor Rick Perry claims that his proposed mandatory STD vaccinations for 12-year-old girls weren’t influenced by his ties to Merck, a pharmaceutical company that donated $30,000 to his campaign. What people don’t know, however, is that at that time, his former chief of staff was working as a lobbyist for Merck. Coincidence? Psh. And plus, since when is a dude who refuses to support teaching kids about condoms concerned about sexual health? Google damn him.
