Another Year...
Oct. 19th, 2006 10:04 amAnother horrible ballot initiative. This one is initiative 933, 'Trial Lawyers Loot the Government'. Sorry, 'Globally Reduce Property Values'. No, wait, I think the official title is 'Pay Lots of Money to Random Rich People for No Real Reason'.
The supposed intention is to repeal all zoning and environmental laws. The exception for health and human safety is 'immediate harm', and the grandfather clause is 'before 1996'. That would be bad enough.
But the enforcement plan is 'lawsuits' and the transition plan is 'lawsuits', so you can see what the real intent of the law is.
I don't think people in this state are stupid enough to actually pass this monster, but still. *brr*
