Is the Biden Woke Crimes Ending?

 

Trucking

This guy nails it. Biden + woke + corruption = highway fatalities

Simplistic Current Car Sales Methods

For grumpy old retired iron movers like me, this is why you better do all your own research because the likelihood of the person across from you knows anything about what they are selling are nil.

Late 1990’s had a couple come in wanting to buy an F-150 with a 5.8 V-8, manual transmission, to pull a travel trailer. They had a folder full of information and “knew what they wanted”. I started asking questions? How much did the trailer weigh? Whipped out the brochure and showed me. Pointed out that was dry weight, water alone added 8+ lbs. per gallon, etc. They left, very unhappy. Next weekend they were back. Seems they had talked to people who had RVs. They left with a F-250 extra cab, automatic transmission, and a 7.5 V-8. At the time Ford rated the automatic tow capacity higher than a manual. P.S. We didn’t cheap sell the truck.

XCEL

By misfortune, my electricity provider. Apart for first class boots on the ground, otherwise the ongoing target of my ire.

The Xcel board is well insulated from the public and in thrall with “green energy”, DEI, and other (P)regressive crap instead of focusing on providing electricity. They find kindred spirits within Colorado boards and agencies.

 

I pay $60 to $90 monthly for a 600 sq ft apartment with gas heat and gas water heater. My gas bill runs around $15 monthly.

Question relating to AI Centers? Why should we home consumers be forced to subsidize them?

Blue to Green – It Is the Colorado Way

A long article by a pot stirrer detailing how the state wants to tax packaging material used by businesses.

Excerpt.

 It gets worse, however. Guess who's running the show? It's yet another unelected board contracting with a nonprofit. More of Polis' and other Democrats cronies reaching into the lives of citizens and tinkering in the state economy.

 The article ends with a sane quote.

 "Weld County Commissioner Scott James, who was opposed to the plan in the beginning said nothing has changed his mind. 'We don’t need it,' James said. 'It’s just more grist for the green-grift mill. We are creating economies where no economies exist in the name of environmental absolution. People are done with it. It’s going to cost producers more, and companies will not absorb that cost. If we really want to make things more affordable, then we need to stop doing things like this.'"

 In other Colorado news,  Colorado is #3 nationally in bicycle thefts.


As always, YMMV

ADDENDUM: My last post has triple the number of views the blog gets. Must be a good clickbait headline. I hope folks weren't too disappointed.
