$89! I can't afford $89! Whine, whine, whine. Jesus, I live in California now, and the annual car registration fee is more like $250. I think you Vermonters need to stop complaining about your ridiculously cheap fees.

I'd also raise taxes on rich property owners, second home owners, sales taxes on expensive cars, and so on, of course.

Boule Bakery has great coffee and baked goods.

The fairbanks museum is pretty underwhelming if you are an adult. If you are 8 years old it is the best thing ever. So choose wisely.

I keep hearing people say Whirligig Brewing is very good, but I've never managed to be there when it is open.

Schilling Brewery in nearby Littleton NH has excellent European style beers that are rare to find in the US. Great views from their patio in good weather, and the food is good.

Toll roads that exist today were toll roads before the interstate system was created. Or, built after the interstate system but not using any Federal money. Tolls can not be added in VT as they were not toll roads before the interstate system was built. And, if we could the tolls would have to pay the full cost of maintenance as the current 90% from feds would end.

Oooh! Tell me more, Daddy Warbucks! Drop that rich man knowledge on the peasants! This is why we need to be ruled by millionaires in the senate and white house - you know so much about where to put big boats! I'm sitting here dreaming of dinghy! Pish posh!

Because1 if you were to ask poor ol' raggedy me where's the cheapest place to store your big boat, I'd only have one answer - and the closest it gets to Maine is right up your Mass. ;)

I mean it's not opioid addicts that need evicting, it's the opioid dealers, no? From a tenants rights perspective that should be the minimum expected. Get the dealers out, the addicts won't come and it at least solves the issue of the other tenants being shrugged at by the city saying, "whelp, nothin we can do about it." Who's more important to protect here, the drug dealers or the elderly and disabled?

Side note: If a jail was ever built for anything, it's for murderers. Murderers often include fentanyl and heroin dealers, whether or not they were standing next to the person when it happened.
