Radio Goldy

by Goldy — Thursday, 1/6/11, 8:43 am

Heads up: I’ll be on KUOW’s The Conversation at around 12:40 this afternoon, giving nightlife promoter (and bar owner) Dave Meinert the business over his misguided proposal to help fill our state budget hole through doubling consumption of alcohol and a tenfold increase in gambling. I’ll post a few relevant stats and links closer to air time.

    Already this is a loaded debate. The issue should be revenue choices (of which there are many), and not how Meinert has framed the issue: new and modern gambling/alcohol vs. outdated blue-law prudishness making the state go broke.

    Wingers always tout gambling as a solution to our fiscal problems. How about a tax on fucking? If we taxed fucking there would be no Republicans only one generation from now, because Republicans will do anything to avoid taxes.
