A while back, I became acquainted with David Adams' work in fighting Bluegrass State "city hall" politics, specifically Kentucky's governor Beshear's efforts to install a state-run Exchange.

By itself, this action violates the rights of taxpayers to not have their pockets picked without legislation first being properly enacted."
