If you live in Massachusetts and would like to see something banned, just send a note to Governor Maura Healey and you’ll probably get your wish. Gas stoves, cars, fluorescent light bulbs… pick your poison. And if she can’t convince the legislature to ban it, she’ll just sign an executive order and cut out all of the muss and fuss. It’s a very efficient system if you don’t mind a healthy dose of autocratic authoritarianism mixed in with your morning coffee. Now Healey has struck upon something else that Simply Has To Go. And that would be single-use plastic bottles. The legislature hasn’t seriously looked at anything like this so she is at least aware that she can’t wipe out that entire sector of the marketplace singlehandedly. But she’s pretty sure she can do it inside of the state government. So with a stroke of the pen, she will ban state agencies from buying any products in single-use plastic bottles. Problem (?) solved! (Fox News)Read More
