They'd better hustle
Washington Monthly, April, 2005 by Charles Peters
My favorite example of make-believe involves odometers. When it was revealed that used car dealers were fiddling with the mileage to make their cars more alluring to buyers, Congress made it illegal to tamper with odometers. But it only appropriated enough money to hire four inspectors. There are 120,000 used car dealers.
