Falling Special Interests

Bagley Cartoon: The Utah Public Lands Lottery

Falling oil price raises questions on viability of shale


Hopefully the Utah State Legislature will see the falling gas prices, know about the economic viability of oil shale, and not do what the special interests want them to do and not sell Utah public lands for development.  Hopefully.  


Who am I kidding?  The Utah State Legislature is driven by special interests.  Why else would moving the prison be on the table despite boisterious public opposition to the details of the move, as well as questions as to the genesis of the desire for a move.  Sigh.
