Recently President Biden signed a bill called the “Inflation Reduction Act,” and it must reduce inflation, right? It says so right there in the title! At least that was the argument that Karine Jean-Pierre made in defense of the IRA:

See? It’s that simple! That said, it sounds like the North Korean legislature is taking a similar approach when it comes to creating a “beautiful and civilized socialist fairyland”:

Many Democrats, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom, might get jealous of that legislation. As a matter of fact, the California legislature could come up with the exact same thing and it wouldn’t seem out of place:

Replace North Korea with California and it would still sound believable

It really would.
Via Reuters, this doesn’t sound very different than what comes from the American Left these days:
North Korea’s rubber-stamp parliament convened this week to pass legislation aimed at turning the country into a “beautiful and civilized socialist fairyland,” state media reported on Thursday.
The North Korean Supreme People’s Assembly (SPA) met for its first session on Wednesday, and adopted laws on landscaping and rural development, state news agency KCNA reported.
The two laws will help advance the ruling party’s efforts to bring about “a radical turn in the rural community and its policy on landscaping to achieve a rapid development of the Korean-style socialist rural community and spruce up the country into a beautiful and civilized socialist fairyland,” KCNA said, citing a deputy’s speech to the gathering.
“North Korean legislature or U.S. Democrats — YOU make the call!”
Son they’re copying California?

Governor Newsom is making California a little closer to North Korea every day:
North Korea is almost as dark as California at night.

Sad but getting truer by the day.
