I understand what you are saying but I don't think there is much that can be done about it other than continuing to protest. You (and the rest of the folks in your state) had the bad luck of getting stuck with an idiot in charge when the big one hit. There does seem to be three or four governors trying to win the big idiot award. PA, MI, WA and CA all seem to be in the running so far. Not sure exactly why they are doing what they are doing but I guess that is just how it goes. Some people do stupid stuff under stress.
