Denver is gearing up to fight global warming, and residents may soon be asked to make personal sacrifices to help save the planet.

I read the article and I didn’t see a lot of “asking”. I did see a lot of “telling”.

IMHO the hallmark of a bad idea is when you have to force people to do it.

I read about increased regulation that is a hidden form of taxation. Fifth Amendment issues when I have to bring my house to code to sell it? They have just “stolen” value from me. No court order; no compensation. Just theft!

This is the gooferment at it’s best. Denver will be better than others because they care more. Note no one is saying that it will make an iotas difference.

Sigh!

I gotta get to the Free State.
