A Fake Energy Crisis?
It’s been claimed that: “No power source is more dangerous to life and the environment than burning fossil fuels”. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

If we only considered minuses, … Read more
NH State Rep Steven Bogert at the Belknap County Delegation meetings – use of email BCC feature vs RSA 91-A (NH’s Right To Know Law)
He thinks that he’s keeping from establishing a “quorum” via doing BCC emails (“Don’t do REPLY ALLs”). Won’t tell us who the “appropriate people” are that gave him the advice information.

So No One is Holding Belknap County Chair Harry Bean Accountable for his RSA 91-A Misfits?
So some birdies have been tweeting in my ear that a bunch of meetings have been held without proper noticing, the public doesn’t know, “fast and loose” is a phrase that could be applied to these “Citizens for Belknap PAC (Democrat) Republicans”.

When Faced with Higher Wages, Poor People Suffer the Most
If Jay Newton is right, why are many workers poor after each minimum wage increase? Why, after about 24 minimum wage increases over 70 years, haven’t we achieved economic nirvana where everyone’s rich and no one’s poor?
