Boulder is a Stoopid Place

Great. Who is going to be hiring I ask?

Taxes and penalties going up for:

• Health care
• Climate change bill

Does money just grow on trees?  Libs, perhaps you should pass a law demanding that private corporation hire the unemployed whether they need them or not.  The government can subsidize the whole process.

Is there no cost too high for the progressive and liberal agenda?  Didn’t think so.

Do you think money grows on trees? (Don’t answer that).

You really can’t make this stuff up.

Looks like the Boulder City beaurocracy was simply waiting for someone to make a stink about a neighbor cutting down trees on their own property. If a minorities complaint is part of the Boulder City bearocracy group think they sure will carry your water for you. (8:57  this isn’t saying what I mean.  I don’t mean a minority from a racial perspective, I mean what I believe to be a minority of citizens that wish to control what the actions of their neighbors).

The City staff noted…

In a memo on the proposed changes, the staff noted that several options might not be well received by the public, either because they infringe on property rights or hinder development.

“Theoretically, people are really supportive of tree protection and preserving the urban canopy,” Lokocz said. “But when it comes to a specific site, people become a lot more hesitant to say how much you should do or not do because there’s a tree there.”

What does it matter what the public thinks and what’s so bad about taking away a little more of a Boulderites property rights? They’re so well trained they meekly give them away and don’t give it a 2nd thought. No problem giving away one’s freedoms for the common collective in the City of Boulder.

I’m sure glad the City of Longmont showed in Tuesday’s election that there is a slight amount of hope that the 24 square miles surrounded by reality can be contained.

As a side note, we have lost a number of trees on one of our property lines due to too much moisture supplied by a neighbors leech field. I’ll spare you the details, but the County stated there must be an underground stream. Totally laughable, but I’d rather lose the trees than have the nanny state passing another law. Thankfully I live in the County.
