Because not only will our proposed legislation benefit our kids, but it will also create jobs, boost the economy and create more tax revenue for much needed government projects.”

However, some detractors claim that the fidget spinner legislation is simply borrowing a page from the net neutrality playbook, and using government “newspeak” to influence people into believing that harmful policies are in fact a positive thing. “The FSEA claims that unless the industry is regulated, a fidget spinner monopoly could occur where dangerous fidget spinners are released at outrageous prices  – and that consumers will have no choice but to buy them,” said opponent Billy McBlastikins.

Fannycraft called the accusations from McBlastikins as “absurd”, and “a fine example of yet another libertarian crackpot shouting about Statism all while advocating for some kind of Mad Max apocalyptic wasteland.”

“We’re confident that we can speak to the many concerned individuals out there who, like us, believe that the only way that positive change can happen is through State control,” Fannycraft stated. “This is quite simply a matter of either agreeing with us, or supporting the end of the world. There is no third, fourth, or fifth option here.”
