Letter: Okay, you're right just this once

On Sunday's column about the huge "energy bill" in the Legislature:

Dear Mr. Trotsky this is a red letter day.  Not Red Communist, but red as in normal sense of color.  I agree with you for the first time in the history of the world... The free market has not had the opportunity to operate due to the politicians inserting their dumb a** lawyer selves into something for which they have no experience, expertise or even a minimal competency in operating a business... Dumping everything into one so called "Omnibus" bill is their way of avoiding culpability when the unintended consequences began to rain down on the citizenry.  I stopped buying your version of Pravda many years ago.  I bought this copy looking for a house to buy in St. Petersburg..  I will not likely see your column again, after I find the house of my dreams or, at least, one I can afford.  -- Bob Steele

Dear Bob Steele: Thanks for the message and good luck with the house search. I would think this would be a good time to buy, since lots of folks have been on the market so long they're finally getting more realistic about prices -- another free-market solution. Don't buy the paper but if you pick one up in a waiting room somewhere you can see the latest idiot thing I am saying for free.
