One of the most common cries in political discussions is that age old - "you can't legislate morality." This statement is often used to argue against policies rooted in ethical or religious principles, implying that laws should remain neutral or purely procedural. However, this notion is deeply flawed. In reality, all legislation is a form of morality, as every policy decision reflects a judgment about what is right or wrong, just or unjust. The question is not whether morality should be legislated, but rather whose morality will shape the laws that govern society.
And Property Tax debates in the Senate this week are worth discussing.
