Re: Tig Fluff

This move by the legislature is not due to protectionism and is only one of the roadblocks. This is politics pure and simple. Despite the fact that the voters resoundingly voted dow...

Re: Has Colorado Lost their Minds
I live in Colorado. Family has been here since 1864. Because of this we are moving, the realtor will be here today to take pictures of the house. This will bankrupt Colorado.
