How hard???  Well, I estimate that it'll take 356 government employees, 67
months to write hundreds of pages to document the what/why/when/where/how to
do it and cost millions in taxes just because someone decided it needed to
become a law/regulation.

No offense to any government workers in the list (if any) of course ;)
