The Drama of it All and Mantra-zombies Too
June 5, 2011
It happens every legislative
session… lots of drama and dysfunction. From the beginning, hundreds of
BDRs become bills, agency budgets are scrutinized then “closed”, and games
are played on both sides. The process is designed to waste time and build
political pressure… it is meant to create a crisis. This legislative drama
has remained unchanged for decades and again guarantees no reform for our
failed tax system, no improvements to our educational system and the
continuation of the State Employee Tax.
It is shameful politics. It is
Nevada Politics.
Right now, there is no budget
deal and this is good news for Sandoval because it puts extreme pressure on
legislators to wrap up business before the June 6th deadline. Sandoval has
simply lets things play out in their dramatic and dysfunctional way and this
year his loyal mantra-zombies insures a political win for him.
