PR Gimmicks
Don't get me wrong. I am totally supportive of holding Congressional hearings to discuss issues of importance. But I'm gettign a little tired of hearings being held to simply provide PR for the Committee Chair or others who want to "look good". This week we have three separate hearings to discuss OSHA. One on victims, one on ehanced enforcement and one on penalties - all important issues to be sure. But waht will come of these hearings? I'm willing to bet that not much will happen. But I guess just airing the problems is supposed to be enough
