Elsewhere, in an experiment in socialism which I predict is doomed to be a most expensive failure, Boulder voters approved, by a 52 percent to 48 percent vote, a measure which will allow the city to sever its ties with the local electric power utility and set up a city-owned utility. A companion measure which slightly increased a utility-related tax passed by 141 votes out of more than 26,000 votes cast. Can you imagine a bunch of far-left radical environmentalists (i.e. Boulder city government) who never met a carbon tax they didn’t like (or any other tax) running an electric utility? As the maxim goes, people get the government they deserve.
Amen.
