Mm...so close, and yet so far from my state. And both hilarious and disturbing. People got some wacky ideas of how the world works... I don't love taxes either, but shit costs money, folks! *L
My favorite aspect of this is that, should that proposal pass, millions of state dollars would be spent changing the seal on all sorts of signs. Brilliant. j
ha! good point. then someone could propose another tapeworm (the people proposing this) sucking on this first tapeworm, etc. lovely. *L
...did you see the Colorado initiative about establishing a UFO, er, an Extra Terrestrial Affairs Committee? k
