Yeah, on another board I said that it was a dumb move, "as long as supply was low." As supply comes back on-line, it will help. In the meantime, the increased demand due to lower prices will simply compund the supply problem.

yeah i agree. I was just sort of speculating out loud. I can only assume the Governor has tons of economist explaining things to him. I think he's banking that the supply increase will offset the demand spike when the tax goes into place. Either way seems like a risky career move. There are easier ways to fool the people into thinking you are actually doing something. ;)
