Colorado will soon be a safer place! Plastic bags are to be banned. One of the hard working (P)regressive “Karens” has been working to pass this since elected.

No mention of her, and fellow (P)regressives, failure to pass a state budget for two sessions. That will require them to work with rural conservatives but, hey! they care about all their constituents, just ask them. Just don’t ask their constituents.
The silence from them regarding the millions of non biodegradable snot rags we have been forced to wear, seemingly forever, now being scattered to the four winds is deafening.
Certainly this will result in better weather for everyone.
Currently my area has had the wettest spring in decades while most of Colorado is in a severe drought. Areas that were brown just six weeks ago now have grass 5’ tall. I can’t remember seeing native hay being harvested this early.
I’ve never seen roadsides harvested before.
But have no fear. If we just pay a bit more in taxes, the weather will even out. What if it doesn’t, WSF? We can comfort ourselves with the virtue signaling of trying to do something. Solve vexing problems like homelessness, violent crime and third world roads are too hard. Perhaps we can fool both the public and ourselves with the sound and fury with which we attack trivial issues.
As always, YMMV.

The Miller farm has a large collection of "stuff", airplanes, cars, trucks, construction equipment, farm equipment, etc. People can wander around and the Millers will sell you all manner of food stuff. They are about ten minutes East of I-25 off Exit 243. Well worth the time if you are traveling I-25 IMO.

Knocked it outta the park, WSF!
Thank you!
One of the pleasures of leaving California and arriving in Arizona was that AZ uses plastic trash bags. They did in California, but they charged ten cents a bag. You see, it wasn't about eliminating plastic, it was about profiting from the plastic trash bag market.
Sometimes I wish I had good accounting skills. Collecting all these nuisance taxes cost money. I wonder how much of a net spendable sum makes it into the general fund vs the costs for the number of people involved in the tax collection.
Good one, and damn glad I don't live there... Colexit needs to become a reality... sigh

All my life, except for the service, I've lived where I can see mountains. Idaho calls but the long, dark winters are a negative. There are places in New Mexico I like but the NM politics are nearly as bad as Colorado. Utah's taxes are high. Places with high humidity are out. I'm too picky, I suppose.
Interesting, they harvest the roads here. Hey, waste not, lose not. Some say it's all about profit. Huh. What dangerous cynics. And per NFO, good luck with the exit...
We live in a world of lies and chicanery that'd make a snake oil salesman blush.
Speaking of snake oil peddlers, our resident thorn in (P)regressive backsides unloaded on the just ended legislature session.

It is an inadvertent jobs boost that will provide employment for lawyers who will be taking most of the sh*tload to court asap.
Time for a recall!
Mid term elections may be "interesting" for the (P)regressives.
