Is it possible to confirm the following — does the health care bill stipulate that wood/pellet stoves will have to be destroyed? I heard this on the radio together with — home will be inspected to make sure they conform to energy efficiency standards (appliances, lighting, etc.)

Hey Olga. None of those things are included in the health care bill. There may be some standards in the energy bill, but certainly nothing as broad and sweeping as home inspections or the destruction of existing heating sources. I know there’s been talk of providing funding for weatherization upgrades, but even that isn’t in either of the programs, and has stalled repeatedly in congress.
What radio show did you hear that on?

Robert from C-falls, commented about how he needs that rest stop at Harlowton. I guess he wasn’t listening very well, again! There is a restaurant right on the highway, and you stated that on your program. He brought up that he didn’t want to cut education. The old socialist tactic of “Let’s do it for the Kids.” Let’s cut the feel good programs, for the kids. Then there will be money for the education that they need. Then there was the gentleman that doesn’t like the land use permit and claims that he paid taxes on this land. This gentleman like Robert appears to be another victim of public education. He did not pay taxes on the great majority of this land. The great majority of this land is School Trust Land and is required to be used to generate income to the state. If we use his ill informed postion as a standard then there is no reason that a farmer or rancher should have to pay money to lease the property for grazing or to grow a crop. Isn’t it long overdue to retire the “money for nothing and the chicks for free” culture, and go back to the ” love one, trust few, row your own canoe” culture that made this nation great?
