Don't worry, they can already read it in you house.

I think all we need do is use transparent trash bags. No need to open them anymore.

Really not a bad idea to keep an eye on town governments....some times they thumb their noses at the taxpayers.....for example, the Laconia Sun reported last week that when Meredith selectmen asked town employees to forgo their annual cost of living raise because of the bad economy....that angry employees, led by Lt Keith True of the MPD, overwhelmed town meeting with their numbers and VOTED themselves a raise.
MCA may not be such a bad thing.

Not only is it not a bad idea, it is our Right, as American's and as Tax Payers.

First of all not enough people anymore are involved at the basic level of voting once a year. But after that even those that vote far fewer remain involved enough to make sure that the people they elect are doing what it is that they promised, when they campaigned.

As citizens in a community, especially when you own property and pay taxes you have a great many rights that people often over look. You have every right to question your elected officials, they might not like it, but you do have the right. You have the right to sit down and talk to them too.... it doesn't mean they have to make it easy for you.... but you do have the right.

I definitely agree. Many people in Moultonborough follow along like sheep whatever the town officials decide. There is nothing wrong with paying attention to how your elected officials are spending your money and holding them accountable. Remember the planning baord ordinances that were defeated last year? People paid attention. Remember the bills that Betsey Patten tried to pass last year? Didn't happen because people paid attention and voiced their opinions.

Not a good idea, IMO. Milton makes you buy see-thru bags from the town. They're like a buck a piece. So if you use an average of 4 bags a year, that's an additional annual expense of $200.

Nifty way to heap on a new tax, I suppose.
