Well stated.
I can’t help but wonder if this backfired on the Big O. Maybe he thought by putting off a decision, he could retain the union AND green vote.
Sadly, we will all suffer for his incompetence.
To quote a Star Trek character I once read in a book:
“Klingons are ruthless, vindictive and savage bastards but on the other hand, they pay their bills on time and in full. By Ferengi standards, we can accept such idiosyncrasies so long as there’s profit to be made.”
