Legislators should focus on more important things
Let's see, California's unemployment rate is around 11.5
percent. The state is about $42 billion in debt. Gangs, drugs and
illegal immigration are increasing problems. And, our illustrious
legislature is spending time worrying about the horrible evil of
Styrofoam cups and plates — those dastardly purveyors of wickedness
that, if allowed to continue their carnage of holding coffee and
food, will destroy life as we know it on this planet. Bye-bye even
more businesses and jobs.
Wait, and that's not all! They now want to tax Internet
purchases, further driving business away from the state.
But they're not though yet! As a bonus, they will also cut
budgets on the things that matter most — police, education, fire
fighting — while still holding on to excessive government waste,
pet programs and their cushy lifestyle.
Oh, as an even bigger bonus our politicians will add even more!
In 2009, as California was sinking financially faster than the
Titanic sank in the Atlantic, our state government got enamored
with homosexual activist and politician Harvey Milk and spent time,
and our tax money, making sure he got a special day. How
absurd!
And to think that we vote these guys in and actually pay them to
do this! Isn't it time we the people hold our elected officials
accountable and vote them out if they continue this ridiculous
behavior? As you sip your coffee from a Styrofoam cup this morning,
think about it.
