Mostly right

The Pioneer Press editorial page scores Gov. Dayton and the lege for their recklessness in today's main editorial, but they do get one thing wrong, right at the very end:

Lawmakers -- including many who represent the east metro area -- were sent to the Capitol with a mandate to strengthen the economy and create jobs. Those who answer the call for repeal will do so.

If that was the mandate, then you don't send DFLers to St. Paul. This crew was sent to provide A Better Minnesota, which is one that fits the notions of the gentry Left. Those in the business of growing business aren't supposed to benefit from the actions of our Better Government -- they are supposed to keep quiet and pay for it and stop being so damned greedy.
