Well then why don't you do that?

Sounds like an expensive mess

Why would people move such a small distance to avoid climate change?

If you want rain and 50 and misery come on up! But really don’t. We are having the worst winter. There isn’t much to do since everything that makes Vermont nice is outdoors and it just keeps raining. Current 10 day has rain 5 of those 6 days. If we get lucky it will be colder than expected and that will all be snow which will suck for travel but be good for outdoor activities

Simple rule, all rentals for vacant houses must be month to month only. No daily rentals for vacant houses. All of a sudden thousands of houses come online.

And adding roads on top of maintenance to what we have is only one component that needs addressed.

Ok boomer you can go complain to somebody else today

You'll love this: https://pppdata.us/all-data. You may look up any business that received PPP funds! There's also an option to report any business you feel wrongly received those funds. 🤑

I can't believe you didn't include a /s with that, it'd have been a fantastic sarcastic joke.

Honestly, the shit-boxes that come to VT from NY are hazardous at best. Giant gaping rust holes all over the body, so much so that you can see through the car. Imagine how close the suspension is to failure.

I agree with this. We bought our house in NEK for a little under $80,000 in 2019 and our taxes have gone up almost $1,800 in 2 years and our house value doubled. During covid people came out of state and paid cash for homes around up for $500,000 and more! It was a selling/buying spree! If this pace keeps up we'll be homeless and forced out.

I hit mine with bondo after and it went by no problem

I had these same issues. Dealership wanted $3500 for all my issues (I had a few others).

I don't care how my car looks, so I got some bondo, automotive spray paint, and sealer and fixed the holes myself (after sanding the rust away in the first place).

They also got me for a small rust hole in my muffler. I ended buying a new one from Oriellys and installed it myself.

Saved tons of money doing the work, and a bunch of other things myself.

Also, anyone who said the dime sized hole in the runner board under my rear passenger door is a safety hazard GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU TWIT.

You’re extremely correct there.

Well theyre building new houses in williston. 100 new single family homes on mt view

It's super easy to read the expiration date on a paper plate on the back of a car traveling 65mph.

So make the state do the inspections.

Because moving to Canada is too much of a hassle and the salaries there are too low, while their cost of living is nearly as high as NYC.

Vermont is the place in the US that will suffer the least from climate change.

What percentage of car accidents are caused by faulty cars and not faulty drivers?

They will come from everywhere, what's going to happen is as the climate continues to break down, southern and midwestern/western states are going to become more uninhabitable due to climate induced events, so people are going to start showing up more and more to our area of the country. Whether they have houses or jobs to come to won't matter, people will show up regardless, and they'll live in their cars, tents, or shacks to do it, just like desperate migrants have for all of human history.

Politicians here, like most places, don't seem to understand this reality, Scott especially is incredibly stupid when it comes to this future, but there's a good chance he'll still be office as people start to show up on his doorstep, maybe then he'll actually do something about housing and climate resiliency.

North East Kingdom

Absolutely not

If it were made easier to build, who would build? Are their local builders capable of big housing projects? We we just going to end up with big expensive McMansions made by Toll Bros?

Northeast Kingdom. Counties of Caledonia, Orleans, and Essex.

Sooo many of my friends were ridin dirty on inspection until this year when they put the inspection stickers on the left front instead of the middle
