The General Assembly goes back to work Monday, so it is going to be a pretty good idea to hold on to your wallet.
A fine example of why we should stay on guard is what the Senate did to a decent House Bill 228 which, in its original form, just cut back a little on the ridiculous idea of prohibiting "price gouging."
Price gouging is, however, an argument for a different time.
Someone in the Senate came up with the bright idea to slip part of Rep. Harry Moberly's fascist HB 184 that we killed off last month into HB 228.
Whose stupid idea was this? Was it Damon Thayer? Does anyone know? When Harry got busted on this last month, he wound up taking a sick day when he couldn't take the heat.
It's time for a sneaky Senator to catch an early spring cold and to withdraw the Substitute from HB 228.
