File Under: If you're going to vote yes on 1, what is it you truely fear.

As I've stated before, I fundamentally don't understand why anyone cares if two adults want to marry, regardless of their gender. It's none of my business, so why should be any of theirs? What are they truly afraid of? Here's a couple of articles about this mess in Maine, one draws an interesting parallel to race issues and the other is mostly informative.

File Under: Tax initiatives bad for Maine

I would love to have more money in my pocket, however Question 2 and Question 4 on Maine's November ballot are just not gonna help us. As much as I despise the idiots running this state, it's representative government, which is the foundation of our country, should not be subverted in such a fashion. If you don't like the way things are going in your state or municipal government, petition your elected official, elect someone else, or run for office. That's the point! Don't put in place sweeping automatic laws that will require an act of God to undo.
