Answer 1

I'm not surprised. People might use to much gasoline if it was to cheap and that would be bad.

Answer 2

I'm a Conservative and I have to point out that the Wisconsin legislature has more Republicans than Democrats and the Senate only has a slight Democrat edge. Plus the ruling comes from the Dept of Agriculture which is supposed to be non-partisan. How is this a Liberal thing?

Answer 3

What's liberal about it? It sounds more like a law that was intended to protect other businesses in the industry. And, no where in the artical did it say a liberal is enforcing this. Knowing Wisconson, I doubt the Dept of Agriculture is flooded by democrats and liberals.

Answer 4

Ummm... the State is enforcing it's Unfair Sales Act. Why is it the "Libs" who are to blame? Don't Neo-Cons believe in enforcing laws that are on the books? Did you actually read the whole article?

In terms of expanding government, Bush and his administration have expanded the Federal Government to much greater lengths than Clinton, and have taken the deficit to brand new heights. What shall the consequences of that be?

Answer 5

hah..now libs are forcing Wisconsin to uphold some crappy law they instituted??

You guys are so warped.

Now, when you say too much government, do you mean like outlawing abortions through federal mandate?

Answer 6

Ironically, modern republicans are actually for bigger government. Many conservatives have forgotten that small government isn't only small taxes. I often hear republicans/conservatives (some, not all) telling me who to pray to, that I should pray, who I can or cannot marry, who's morals I should follow, and a general feeling of how I should live my life. That's LARGE government. I miss traditional conservatism where they allowed people to feel less constrained. Ever since the Christian Conservative merged with the traditional Conservative, we haven't had a real traditional thinker in the Republican party. They all went to the Libertarian party.

Answer 7

I admit , you conservative terrorists that spread disinformation and try to divide the country, are pretty good at what you do. Not good enough, however. You are only preaching to your base anymore. No one else cares.

Answer 8

It is the conservatives who cause the high gas prices.

Answer 9

Rules is rules. Lib or Con.

But I hear you. The Cons have put the government in my mail, in my phone, on my email, in my fiance's womb, and in the local church.

Answer 10

Not really what the article says, but okay, whatever.
