Thank you, politicians of Alaska, Iowa, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, Oklahoma and Oregon, for, in your infinite knowledge, preventing me from earning miles for properties in those states. I'm so stupid that I'm not able to determine whether or not doing a transaction that will generate frequent-flyer miles is acceptable or not. So thank you for saving me from my stupidity and for decreeing that I may not earn miles. It's of course totally proper for government to make that kind of decision, rather than an individual.
