Private religious schools shouldn’t get a lick of my money or anyone else. These are the same clowns that instead of trying to improve public schools, would rather they collapse.

Seems pretty fucking reasonable that we as a society have an expectation that our tax money will be spent on creating good citizens not little Adolfs

Good start, but private schools should be banned entirely. Their primary function isn't education, but to serve as a place for the children of the elite to network and calcify their already substantial advantages within society. If you desperately want to spare your kids from the "horrors" of the public education system, then you should either be working to make that system better or else home schooling.

>Sliding scale for some means the rest will have to pick up the tab.
Yes, that's literally what a "sliding scale" is. Some pay below-average rate, others pay above-average rate.
Your concerns could be resolved by simply factoring the number of people in the residence. It would have to be for it to be fair anyway, since it's people that use electricity, not residences.

$89 is not the worst and a I can afford it. But there are many people living check to check in this state and these are across the board increases. These price increases range from a few dollars to a couple hundred $s.
Also, I frankly don’t give a damn how much you’re paying for anything in California or any other state. This is the Vermont subreddit.

I've camped at Half Moon Pond. Absolutely loved it. And there's a Revolutionary War battlefield nearby if you're a history buff.

I second Schilling Brewery, a friend took me there while I was visiting him. Loved the tap selection.

This Mill Moore clown comparing public vs private to casual skier vs competitive skier is such a weak ass argument. They're just trying to pick and choose kids that will conform to their "standards" and the rest can fuck off.

Straight trash. Having kids shouldn't pay. If you cannot afford your kids you need to step up or not have them.

I've been back 3 times because they keep conveniently forgetting to tell me about another form or document they need. They get off on people's suffering. Truly energy vampire material.

You’re supposed to update your address within 30 days of moving.

I don't care about having a decent paying job, I care about making it by. I'm Gen Z, I'm under no stupid illusion that life in this country is supposed to be any shade of good.
And I don't see myself taking my own life. As far as I know, I'm the only sane person, and there would be a bit of loss for the state. /hj

You say this, but there are many middle class families like mine, I have two small dump trucks, two highly efficient cars for my business/employees, and a family car.
We are just hardly getting by because of the existing taxes and implementing more is not proper.
If the “carbon tax” goes through, customers will pay for that in another hidden tax. At some point it is too much. What are middle class folks supposed to do when it all comes to fruition?
