Vehicle safety inspections don’t accomplish what they’re supposed to, and 36 states don’t have periodic safety inspections for passenger vehicles according to Wikipedia.

The budget showdown appears to be over, with a compromise reached between Governor Sununu, the Democrat majorities, and Republican leadership. For months now the State has operated under a continuing resolution passed in late June, but when legislators meet tomorrow at 1pm in both the House and Senate the State could be one step further …

In a guest op-ed appearing in today’s Concord Monitor, Senator Dan Feltes and Chairman Susan Almy took pen to paper in another attempt to fool the taxpayers of New Hampshire.
My earlier post was about the Governor’s veto of the Democrat Budget and the municipal leaders that support it.
