Incredible move for entrepreneurship in the USA. This created just another stupid piece of paper to file that we no longer have to - which was requested on shaky legal grounds and punished by $5000/day fines.

This is information is already on file in tons of places, so the requirement is asinine - I personally never filed mine since it was caught up in the court but I'll gladly take this win.

If it's just a piece of paper, what are you bitching about? Pull up your bootstraps and fill it out and quit your whining.

er, no it isn't, at least some states let you create fairly anonymous companies where the state has no idea of the actual owner of the company, and the lawyers who created it might not either.
