A horsepower limit is the EASIEST law to enforce. Horsepower and year of manufacture is printed on every registration.

Horsepower limits are my top agenda and always have been.
Perhaps the state should just take all island property by eminent domain. Think of the reduced boat traffic and reduced impact on the lake, water quality, shorelines, loon nests, etc. You can apply this bizzare logic to any subject you wish. Unfortunately, I think these weaklings in Concord will fall for just about anything at this point. Interestingly enough, the Mercatus Center at George Mason University just released its 2011 State Freedom rankings http://mercatus.org/freedom-50-states-2011 . I think they need to take another look at this because freedom isn't what it used to be in good, ole' NH.
