Following the Washington State Legislative special session which ended last Thursday, November 29th, citizens across the country are asking themselves, "has the largest governing body in the state of Washington, responsible for the welfare of millions of American citizens, gone MAD?!
While the Northwest LaRouche Youth Movement was going office to office in the Washington State Legislature in Olympia to distribute copies of Lyndon LaRouche's Homeowners and Bank Protection Act (HBPA) during the final week of November, Washington legislators were allowing themselves to be preoccupied with the tax initiative of Tim Eyman, a right wing anti-tax lunatic who has been financially backed by Wall Street investment executive Michael Dunmire to the tune of more than a quarter million dollars for such petition-ballot projects as legalizing "electronic scratch ticket machines" outside of Indian gaming casinos, and capping real estate property taxes in the state at 1%, (the latest initiative). In the meantime, thousands of Washington state residents face home foreclosures and unemployment in the wake of the biggest global financial blowout in modern times.
In counterpoint to the delusion expressed by the Washington State legislature in even agreeing to take up and debate such silliness in the midst of a global financial crisis of vast magnitude, elected officials, city councils, and other governing bodies have recognized the existential nature of the current housing-mortgage blowout and have acted to introduce and pass resolutions in support of Lyndon LaRouche's HBPA.
In fact, on the very same day the ridiculous Washington Legislative special session came to a close, the Pennsylvania state legislature held its own special session to hear about the same proposed legislation of LaRouche, which the Washington legislature attempted not to address in their monetary-obsessed, delusional state:
"Even though the Pennsylvania legislature is not currently in session, a total of approximately one dozen legislators and 50-60 people attended the hearing. The hearing was a critical milestone in a nationwide mobilization on a local and statewide level to get the U.S. Congress take its Constitutional responsibilities seriously and to erect a firewall to protect homeowners and banks before it is too late."
