Gov. Daniels recently spoke against "rockheaded, misguided" climate change legislation, eliciting a strange response from The Journal Gazette. Daniels said such legislation would devastate the Hoosier economy. That attitude, the JG said, shows a lack of faith in Hoosiers:
The governor's views don't give Hoosiers much hope in making transitions away from traditional manufacturing toward more efficient and high-tech industries. Hoosiers should have more confidence in their ability to be innovative and adapt to changing economic realities.
Yeah, Governor, we Hoosiers are tough! You can knock the legs out from under us and kick us while we're writhing on the floor in agony, and we'll get right back up and dare you to knock us down again! So go ahead and give it your best shot. Destroy our economy and see if we care!
