The Ten Commandments?

Why are there only ten commandments?
I think we need to add a lot more
Here are a few and the list should
always be ready for additions as they come up

Thou shall only have children if thou can afford them
Thou shall pay thy workers a livable wage
Thou shall not pick on others
Thou shall only kill animals that aren't endangered
Thou shall not go to money lending places like Check Into Cash
Thou shall not come into a country unless it is done legally
Thou shall not drink and drive
Thou shall not use cell phones while driving
Thou shall not stand on the street holding cardboard signs begging for money
Thou shall not raise chickens, cows, or any animal in cramped conditions
Thou shall not overfish
Thous shall take pictures and leave only footprints when one visits nature
Thou shall not be mean to thy children
Thou shall not try to control their kids lives after they turn 18
Thou shall not be a sponge to thy friends or family
Thou shall not give crappy food to food drives
Thou shall be really nice to the elderly
Thou shall feed birds and squirrels
Thou shall visit thy parents
Thou shall get plenty of exercise
Thou shall get plenty of sleep
Thou shall decorate thine house or apartment with lights at Halloween and Christmas

About this poem:
I heard this comedy bit by George Carlin about the ten commandments. He pared it down to two. Thou shall be faithful to provider of thy nookie. Thou shall try really hard not to kill anybody, unless they pray to a different invisible god than the one you pray to.
