The Destructive Effects of Leftist Good Intentions

I live in Washington State, which is governed (ruled?) by a heavily DemocRat legislature and ruled by a far-Left DemocRat Dictator (who has been ruling by decree since March of 2020).  In my legislative district, both senators and "representatives" are, of course, DemocRats.  Yesterday in the mail, I received a "2022 Session Report" from one …
