There is legislation in place that shields sellers and manufacturers. The left really wants to change that but not with much success so far. This credit card thing is just kubuki theater. Like you say, once the water calms down I bet it goes away, particularly if a number of big chains decide to tell them to **** off. Like someone said before, where does this stop? Are they going to stop processing charges for dangerous food next? Far more people die from obesity related disease than from guns, by a couple orders of magnitude Why don't we just ban everything the ATF people regulate and be Â* done with it. Of the three, I don't know which is Â* deadliest. Greg seems to think that all of our society problems are mutually inclusive, meaning you can only fix 'em if you fix *all* of them at once.Â* It's ok to take one or two at a time. My take on Greg is that he has no interest in anything other than the anti-rule, anti-regulation, anti-societal libertarian nonsense. That means no regulatory efforts to fix anything. Don't like dirty air? Wear a gas mask. Dirty water? Filter it. Too many high-powered guns in the wrong hands? Wear body armor. I am sure I am doing more about water quality than anyone else here We should compare quarterly water bills. I end up paying four times the basic water volume rate because of all the added on taxes/charges/fees etc for wastewater processing environmental charges etc. I don't have a water bill. I get mine from a hole in the yard. That is one reason why I am interested in water quality. The other is because I want to protect where I boat. The water is one thing about Florida that I don't miss at all. The carbon filter tank, water softener tank and whatever that blue chemical you had to add to remove the pungent sulfur stink so you could take a shower was a pain in the ass. We replaced all the tanks, filters and equipment in the first house we bought down there with a fully automated system hoping it would improve the water quality. It didn't. Bought a water dispenser/cooler for drinking water purchased in 5 gallon jugs from Publix. We have a big aerator that takes out the sulfur and any sand we might kick up, I have an R/O system for the drinking water and a water softener. It is really pretty easy to maintain. The "city water" is not much better and it is pretty expensive. Our neighborhood fights it every time they bring it up. |
