Statement of Principles


Nevada government keeps getting bigger and BIGGER. We deserve minimum, strictly limited, constitutional government in this State.

Forget all this blather about a $3B "shortfall". The budget for the '12/'13 biennium should be no more than $200M.

The 24x7, 365 De Facto Legislature

Originally posted in a LVRJ Forum

We don't need an *adjournment* strategy. We need a *convening* strategy.

This guy Fibbons has now given us FOUR special sesssions, the last three of which were called (at least officially) due to inhospitable economic conditions. Three events of the same type within 24 months hardly qualifies as "extraordinary". Economies fluctuate. Like the weather. Special sessions were meant for 6-Sigma events. Like foreign invasions.

Keep in mind that in between all this we've had two *regular* sessions. This guy Fibbons won't be content until we have a 24x7, 365 legislature.

Now that Fibbons has restarted the BIG government engine he can't stop it (even if he wanted to). Especially since he has given them an agenda which would fill a kitchen sink. Not unless the two legislative bodies can't decide among themselves.

Of course no modern special session commences without an understanding of its ground rules and the predetermined outcome so the Horsefürd birthday party is safe.

The BIG government juggernaut rolls on.
