Good Work If You Can Get It

A story in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reveals that voting in public is just too much work for the leadership of the Wisconsin State Senate.

The best reason listed for not voting in public has to go to Senator Dave Zien.

Zien said he uses such ballots to manage the committee's workload. "I'm a little afraid of overextending our committee - taking our committee members and taxing them beyond their endurance," he said.

Senator Zien thinks doing their job is just too hard on them. If that's the case, I'm sure the voters would be happy to send Senator Zien on long vacation next November.

Maybe if the state legislature stopped passing bills over and over again that their constituents don't even want, like concealed carry, they wouldn't be so taxed trying to get committee work done.
