And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Being a cheapskate- and knowing that the "plastic bag fee" now in effect in CA means that buying bags at grocery stores puts money in the politician's pockets- which is the LAST thing I want to do!- I bring my own plastic bags.
In many stores this means that now I get to do my own bagging. Which is awkward, as the goods are on the wrong side of the checkout for me to access easily. Looks like "grocery bagboy" isn't a good job anymore!
An added infuriation is that dole bludgers, oh sorry I meant "EBT card holders" such as illegal aliens & imported "immigrants" get their plastic bags for free. It's only citizen taxpayers that get hit with this idiocy; so what else is new? Grrrrrr. A pox on all CA politicians!
LOL
ReplyDeleteYep, I've noticed around MetroParkCentralis that 85% of the cashiers in grocery stores think they work for United Airlines.
