Drunk Driving May Save Lives, But it Kills Jobs According to Montana Politician
posted by: Robin Marty
No, this is not an April Fools joke. A politician in Montana really is calling legislation against drunk driving is a "job killer" because it hurts bars, and people would have to get there and back somehow.
Via the Colorado Independent:
On Wednesday, Montana Republican Congressman Alan Hale used the GOP anti-government “job killer” line to defend drunk driving. He argued that drunk driving laws were killing “small businesses” in his state– small businesses like taverns that make money and “create jobs” by sometimes sending people off into the night bubbly in the head and weaving down Montana roadways.
Other potential jobs drunk driving laws might "kill"? Well, extra ambulances, auto repair shops, morticians....
