Reply to comment by TheGoldberryBombadil in Vermont House advances stricter regulations on private schools taking public tuition by casewood123
You would think, but then the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that school voucher programs can't discriminate against schools because of their religious practices. So that's why these Vt. schools are trying to force their way into public dollars.

Well, and there's the rub. Those schools can't (or shouldn't be able to) accept public funding without abiding by the public rules. Which makes such obvious sense. Can't have your cake and eat it too.

Regulate it differently, maybe. Don’t forget that VT’s topography is a challenge. We need our local farms & forests, which keep us healthy, or we don’t have much to pass on to future generations.

> No, that's a private religious school that does NOT receive public funding.
Yet. They sure are trying like hell, though.
> But now, a pair of religious schools are testing that rule. In applications to the State Board of Education last month, the heads of two Vermont Christian schools sought approval for tuition money — but hinted that they might not follow all of Vermont’s anti-discrimination laws.
One of those two Christian schools? The same Mid-Vermont school that forfeit over a trans opponent.

Fed cannabis policy is shit. But what kind of clown 🤡 protests? With a sign that says “shit” at a place kids visit?
Same sort of clown that posts “I've been told on multiple occasions that threatening words and behavior are not themselves illegal: but I don't care” then expects support when he gets out trolled by a fellow troll 🧌 pointing out how absurd your point is with a joking threat. Duhhh.
It’s not your opinions it’s how terrible you are at expressing them and your cross posting nonsense. Take your victory into the weekend.

Google "Middlesex VT news" and links to some articles. Not sure if this is it but all I could find.

Has anyone seen the deeper new pit?! It’s about at the foundation of the brick building at the top left of pic.
Sad that they never put in the Taco Bell and dirt track, in another universe where Wanzers the mayor.

That is not appropriate either. This is not a discussion where a conversation may lead to a topic. This is a news organization attempting to capitalize on the indictment of Trump.
It doesn’t matter what your take on the indictment is, the topic is not about Vermonters Vermonting or whatever the catch phrase is. This is national news and deserving of discussion and attention, it just does not belong in this sub.

If discussing where cellphone batteries come from (not VT-specific) is appropriate then certainly Chief Insurrectionist news is appropriate.

See, I've always taken the "conserve" part to mean they are conserving their wealth. Think Scrooge McDuck swimming in a pile of gold, or the dragon from the Hobbit.

just in that we're trying to hear from VT-ers. VT Politics is a good suggestion, thanks

The definition of “conservatism” is getting other people to pay for the shit they want.

Years ago I was standing outside the State House with a sign that read "When it comes to marijuana, the feds are full of shit". At one point a passing legislator (I recognized him) commented I shouldn't use foul language as kids would be coming and going.
"I"ve already won," I told him, "because you're going to remember what my sign says, and my message is now a permanent part of your thinking."
And so it is with you, I've already won. I'm there, my message makes sense and is smart. The titillating part for you is that now you can read sensible writing while you tell your friends and family how bad what I write is.
I get it.
