If you care to read about a state legislator who is both shallow and impudent, read this piece in the Columbus Dispatch about Sen. Kearney from Cincinnati taking official action against high ticket prices for entertainment.
How insensitive can government become? Why not price gouging at the gas pump? Price gouging at the pharmacy? Price gouging at the hospital? Price gouging at the insurance agency? Price gouging at the doctor's office? Price gouging at the tax office? Just a few categories of price gouging for which government employees and policies are to blame. These are examples of price gouging for which people have no defense and no hope of help unless it comes from government.
This buffoon picks out price gouging on entertainment tickets - which nobody needs - about which to call for an investigation.
The more one learns about Ohio government the more cynical and disheartened one becomes. Maybe we in Licking County are lucky that Gannett all but ignores it.
On the other hand, if they didn't ignore it, maybe we'd have fewer buffoons.
