As an outsider, you already “tax the shit” out of second homes, which, by the way, bring tens of thousands of jobs to the state, fund your schools, fund your police, etc

I expect this out of Alabama, not MA. Democrats in MA have super majorities in the house and senate, they have the SJC, and the governors office. They can pass anything they want here unilaterally (and could have done the right ting during Baker since they had the numbers to override a veto) It’s just a matter of if they care enough to do the right thing.

STATE constitution. Democrats in MA have super majorities in the house and senate, they have the SJC, and the governors office. They can pass anything they want here unilaterally. It’s just a matter of if they care enough to do the right thing.

By driving on public roads you choose to abide by certain conditions. If you don’t want to, don’t use the roads. Be a homesteader. No one has made you participate in our society

I’m sorry you’re so sheltered in VT that you think Burlington is comparable to NYC, Chicago, La, Houston, hell even a medium sized city like Boston.

You didn’t qualify that it was within Vermont, you referred to Burlington in the same lens as much larger cities where 5 murders a weekend would be a nice break lol. Sure, Burlington is the major city of Vermont. It is absolutely not a major city

It is a “city” but you referenced it to ‘this would be a good weekend in any other major city’. Boston has 20x the population of Burlington. New York has 200x the population of Burlington. Burlington is absolutely not a major city lol. It has the same population as Salem MA, where the which trials were. It’s ⅓ the size of Manchester NH, also not a major city. Its a tiny city.

But Burlington isn’t a major city lol. There’s like 2 major streets and 40k people lol. It would be considered a medium sized town in any state with an actual major city

I agree! Just, in this election, I absolutely did not feel represented. I’m an independent and couldn’t bring myself to vote for her, and I definitely wouldn’t vote for idiot Deihl

Also she should listen to moderate and conservative voices (not MAGA but actual conservatives) too. Will she?

It’s not a frivolous law suit. Almost every election this close has them. Mirra is a great rep, and a wonderful guy. As a democrat who proudly voted to keep Lenny as my rep (even tho he’s a republican) he is a great rep.
