That’s because Phil and Joe Benning are pretty much the only VT Republicans that aren’t sociopaths. VT Republicans would be much more successful in VT (we’re not loving a liberal supermajority but it beats the alternative) Google John Klar, Greg Thayer or Art Peterson and you’ll see why they are irrelevant outside of the pockets of poverty (ie, where I live)

One thing that we never talk about is for housing to be built inexpensive, you need inexpensive labor and the SO MANY blue-collar people across the country that built this country are dead or addicted to opiates. The housing crisis and opiate crisis are inextricably linked. I want to scream when I hear, "no one wants to work anymore." It's not that no one wants to work anymore, but that a lot of them are dead or addicts.

For the life of me, I can't understand why the state keeps sucking resources from other state schools (especially Castleton) to prop up failing schools in the Kingdom. Its going to result in all the schools declining in quality. I feel like the state just wants CCV, UVM and then rich, private colleges.
