Boom! Boom! Out Go the Lights! (If We Don’t Smarten Up)

So kids, what did we learn from Thursday’s House Session (06/06/19)?
We learned that it can take a very long time to get everyone greeted and seated when our friends from the Senate Chamber next door come over for a joint session in the House.

So kids, what did we learn from Wednesday’s House Session (5/8/19)?
For one thing, we learned that the Canadian Consul General lacks any kind of manners since he came to OUR House and criticized our President’s trade policies in his speech to the House. I mean really…. do you go to someone’s house and complain about how things are run at their house? No, you don’t. … Read more
New Hampshire Democrats Raise Your Electric Bill Again To Fund their Personal Priorities

New Hampshire Democrats: You Are Not Paying Enough for Electricity
By nearly unanimous rubber-stamp consent 99% of New Hampshire Democrats, including all four from Merrimack, are convinced your electric rates are too low. You are just not paying enough. So, last week they voted on at least three separate occasions to “fix” that problem. House Bill 447 would have corrected a more-than-decade-old money-laundering scheme. Democrats added a carbon … Read more
So Kids, What Did We Learn From This Week’s NH House Session (3/14)?

All Aboard the Unicorn Express
So, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez finally unveiled the plan she’s been working on since the 5th grade.

Oh, and with some help from old uncle-knucklehead, Senator Ed Markey from Massachusetts. The Green New Deal is the … Read more

Eversource Decides The State of NH Can’t Force It To Make You Pay More For Electricity
Utilities, like governments, are monolithic edifices upon which waves of populist “outrage” love to crash. These sinister cabals exist to better themselves at our expense. They live to serve only themselves. And while that is always true of governments and perhaps Comcast, Eversource has done something to if not break then at least fissure the perception … Read more
