CREATIVE ENCOURAGEMENT

By Bob Walsh

 

Texas Capitol


Governor Abbot of Texas has asked the FBI to start looking into the situation with the fleeing legislators.  There is an interesting angle on it.  The democrats had been soliciting donations to pay the democrats.  The republicans are calling them Beto Bribes as Beto ORourke has been one of the big movers and shakers in that arena.  Turns out that that can be considered bribing a public official to not do their job, i.e. commit nonfeasance in office.  

Already a couple of the democrats have come back more or less voluntarily.  They were being fined $500 a day for no-show days.  Works for me.
