It doesn't cost nothing. It costs money to adminsiter the program and enforce the laws.
And it literally doesn't stop the problem of litter and excess waste.

Outsourcing trash disposal to the economically disadvantaged doesn't solve the problem.
It also costs the state money and encourages more consumption and more trash production.

Yes it still would be. Drunk drivers aren't going to keep their nips in their car for the 5c.

A lot of the HGTV shows started out in Canada, so the housing prices were already fucked for an American audience.
I think now the brothers are in California(?), so still more of the same.

Burrillville voted for Obama twice. It's complicated.
I've also seen multiple BLM signs throughout town.
Everyone is very pro-environment here. But people also love their guns.

Reply to comment by rhodyjourno in In push to counter misinformation, R.I. to launch public conversations to foster media literacy by rhodyjourno
I really like the idea behind this, but it seems like a gigantic waste of money
Who the fuck named it Courageous? How the hell is that adjective relevant for fighting misinformation?
It's just virtual training online? No one is going to watch it.
It needs to be incorporated into schooling, although that's an impossible ask with the current state of schooling in this country.

I was on the flight deck of a C-130 south of Newpory Island a few years ago - you could literally see from Nantucket up to the faintest edges of Boston, all of Rhode Island, and then glimpses of Hartford and Worcester. And I think we were only at 10k ft at that point.

The issue is that not every at-risk-youth plays sports.
Those most at risk are usually on some kind of academic probation and aren't eligible to play.
Or they lack the financial resources for travel, training, equipment, rides home, etc.
Mandating physical activity for all students is a better solution as a whole - focusing money on specific athletic teams or events still leaves people behind.

Reply to comment by darthduder666 in Why 95 exit changes? by MadLove1348
I've lived in Colorado, Texas, and upstate NY - I've never used exit numbers unless it was a road trip.
I don't understand why locals would complain about exit numbers. There are people out there who really memorized "I take exit 6" and if they don't they'll miss their turn?

Who the fuck uses exit numbers as a local? I just look at the city/town name or know what exit to take without seeing the number at all

Reply to comment by FourAM in Why doesn't the state build housing? by AbigailFlippinfloppn
OP literally stated their own definition and it's all about state intervention in the economy.
Seeing as housing is one of the largest sectors of the economy and personal wealth, I would say it's a huge economic intervention to provide cheaper housing.
Liberals not wanting to provide that much housing is for the reasons you stated - they don't want to interfere. They only give a shit about the appearance of social liberalism, they don't actually want to change people's material conditions.
