Society issue not a government one. Government will just make it worse. If society doesn't want to give up their convenient cheap bottling solution for a more permanent alternative, then nothing will happen. The government will just give money to certain people and tax the rest. Just an L. If you want to cut down, then don't personally buy the product

According to WCAX, it’s Jill Biden who’s coming.

Weird how 12 years of handing out money and having the federal reserve buy the debt would make things more expensive.

I like this idea. There should also be protections in place to keep it as affordable housing.

None. It had been nice not caring one iota about him for a while.

There certainly are issues with it. I personally think something like a carbon tax would be more effective, and it would better target actual sources of carbon.
There'd need to be something to limit the impact on lower income Vermonters, though (the ones least likely to have an EV or live close to where they work). I don't know what that'd look like.

Fun fact: the deposit was introduced in this state in 1972 at 5 cents, which adjusted for inflation is 36 cents in 2023 dollars.

Because the state was debating state level policy and there was a lot of talk about what the feds would or wouldn't accept.
But don't let asking for clarification get in your way of feeling whatever it is you feel.

Same as Rutland, same as Barre, etc. Know why? Because the County Courthouse is smack downtown. What does that mean? That's where the criminals live because their license is taken away. The legal infrastructure grows downtown and local landlords resist investing in their properties - residential and commercial - because criminals trash them. It's a losing system.

The best event is NHRL which is run several times a year and has a fantastic livestream. It's worth the 4 hour drive to Norwalk CT.
Local club? The foundry makerspace in Lyndon has expressed interest in starting one with me. I have a 4'x4'x4' tool cage that could be persuaded to be NHRL's 8'x8' and enough knowledge to turn learning curves into stairs.

Fine the shit out of both the driver AND the carrier. Post it in large lettering on signs at the Notch and before so that they can turn around.

Yep. If kids at all, they left after their folks passed. Like almost everywhere, it seems. I’m sure they didn’t sell ‘em for their true value…

It’s not losing money if there is a subsidy and regulations for rent control. Maybe not as profitable and I am fine with that, we need to stop treating housing as an investment made to profit developers and investors. There are plenty of models for this type of public housing where standards of living are much higher than ours, and where housing is guaranteed as a human right.
