We live in times where demands for transparency and trust in government is higher than generations.
Local officials, state and federal and federal policy officials are under the microscope each day to make sure they respect democracy and will.
So the new manchester-by-the-the-the-the-sea board decision to ignore the voters at the city meeting is more important.
On November 2024, the Board of Health – a designated, not selected board – passed a so-called “NFG) product tobacco in January. 1, 2004.
In awareness of the quiet generation generation, voters approved by warrant voters Article 19. Most vote shows a growing regulation of NFG and indulging in nfg and prompting restrictions. But the chalkboard refuses to respect the will of voters and instead of doubling, expressing that is within the wide umbrella.
People, however, speak and it’s disrespectful and dissatisfaction for the chalkboard to ignore this vote. Manchester-by-sea residents have the right to have their voices not only heard, but respected. Through the decision at the decision of the city meeting, the board of health was overstepping its authority and issued a clear message that they believed they were better known than residents.
There are many reasons for increasing anti-government’s feelings in public discourse and this action in the health circle is an example example. While seeking ways to prevent the use of smoking and chewing youth tobacco, this particular regulation has not been done purposes – and residents apparently agreed.
NFG is an anti-business, anti-civil freedom affects adults at the age of 21 this policy puts manchester-by-the-sea small products will simply drive over the town line to buy them, or worse, turn to illicit markets, which are Often tied to organized crime.
Many Commonwealth Communities, such as Worcester, Peabody, Milton and Westfield, NFG rejected these reasons. Manchester-by-the-sea, however, is the first municipality of the policy adopt and then reject it by voters. City voters correctly express concern that NFG has more harm than good while hurting local retailers who have already followed the stiff state laws. A member of Manchester-by-The-Sea Pelect Board criticized the Board of Health because of refusing to return to ban, saying that the board has “stray” from core responsibility.
“This ban will only drive many businesses outside the city,” Board Member says Brian Sollosy.
In Bellingham, the NFG issue comes before the Town meeting on May 28, after the board of Mays have been sent to the residents of the city residents rather than executing the policy by the command. The difference is stark – Manchester-by-the-sea health board that presents NFG policy to residents to destroy, and rejects tax residents to determine their own fate. A concept of novel.
This type of management of Nanny State manages increased by rejected as citizens seek to protect adult freedoms. Knowing the opportunity to know the residents of Misantter-by-the-sea that the Board of Health has implemented this policy, they easily voted.
Manchester-by-the-Sea’s health board quit the nose of voters with indifference to goodness. Unacceptable and the board should immediately respect voters’ will and eliminate this intense regulation and discretion.
The fact is, it’s not about public health. It’s about overreach and government control. The Federal government sets the age for buying tobacco at 21, like alcohol. Adults in legal age should not be denied the right to buy legal products just because of the year they were born.
Even more important is the fact that cannabis products, including combenible marijuana cigarettes, not covered under NFG policies. So that means, in NFG communities, a person legal is free to buy cannabis to smoke but cannot buy a nicotic or a wedding.
Government Hipg is hypocritical to the worst but more importantly, in Manchester-by-the-sea, it is literally forced into an unwanted population. That is not democracy.
