Not Good News for the People of Oregon

The Oregon legislature is going to have an off year special session.

No good can come of this unless they do the unexpected and ban such sessions or spend significant time revoking previously passed legislation.

Legislatures tend to spend their time passing legislation, you know, they think they know best how the rest of us should live our lives and spend our money. Unfortunately, most of this legislation consists of patchwork fixes to previously passed legislation.

One thing we know is that they will not be doing is the people’s business. The people do their own business, voluntarily, with each other. Legislatures do the business of government, bureaucracies and the corporate welfare system.
