I would like to have this voted on this year and I don’t quite get Speaker Chopp’s reasons. The other big deal is stopping the “Takings initiative” this November. That is designed to destroy every single state environmental protection law on the books </p> http://seattlest.com/2006/02/15/big_business_1_washington_0.php#comment-162806 http://seattlest.com/2006/02/15/big_business_1_washington_0.php#comment-162806 Comments Wed, 15 Feb 2006 12:27:31 -0800 <p>While I hate Wal*Mart with a vengence, this bill is crap. It doesn't actually solve any problems, just makes more hoops for WallyWorld to jump through to ultimately avoid paying. Here's an idea, how about we actually work to solve the whole health care issue at the top level instead of wasting time dicking around trying to put the screws to businesses in the form of a half-assed bandage?</p> http://seattlest.com/2006/02/15/big_business_1_washington_0.php#comment-162805 http://seattlest.com/2006/02/15/big_business_1_washington_0.php#comment-162805 Comments Wed, 15 Feb 2006 12:19:23 -0800 <p>it's going to come up again, yeah, but why not just do it now? </p> http://seattlest.com/2006/02/15/big_business_1_washington_0.php#comment-162802 http://seattlest.com/2006/02/15/big_business_1_washington_0.php#comment-162802 Comments Wed, 15 Feb 2006 10:19:23 -0800 <p>This is going to come up again in 2007 after the Democrats keep our lead in the State house and State senate and send Darcy Burner to Congress. </p>
