Federal Judge Blocks Florida Restrictive Voting Law

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Serious question:
How in the bloody hell can you believe New York and California are authoritarian when you know of the existence of and policies of those such as Putin and Xi?
Because compulsory policymaking curtails people's economic and personal freedoms. Anybody like that is authoritarian. It dosent need to be extreme like Russia, but it's authoritarian all the same.

We get more say over here with ballot initiatives and special elections than they get in Indiana (now, talk about a state with compulsory policymaking - you rarely get to vote on it there).

So you recommend no policies, and no bars at all to people's economic and personal freedoms?

Oh, or like Mike Pence. When he was governor of Indiana gays were given the right to wed but he still fought to keep it out and curtail granted and entitled rights to a select group of people.

DST says it all about how whackass those claims are. Mitch Daniels forced it on Indiana. There was no vote by the People. The Prozac Wanker who helped curse us with the over prescription of anti-depressants for things theh won't work for also cursed Indiana with DST when he forced it on the state. California on the other hand voted decades ago to enact it and again a few years ago we voted to have our state end changing the clock. That's two votes of the People on the subject compared to a big, fat zero if that Conservative hellhole of Indiana that CATO loves and ranks very free (CATO seems to not mind Indiana is the most generous state when it comes to corporate welfare while the People contend with roads so bad that Indianapolis is getting sued over its potholes).

Yet they just keep on doing it. Both sides.

Screw people like you and me.
