Cause of all the problems

I know, let’s elect a bunch of progressive liberals to our once beautiful conservative state. And the way you do that is have a bunch of liberals move into the state and take it over.

We now know the cause of all the problems and who caused them. In 2021 Jared Polis and his band of liberals decided to change the penalties for unlawful automobile thief. The effect of that is Colorado has been awarded the Car Theft Capitol of America.

There is no way to measure the dollars wasted and the human suffering the decision they made to change the law has cost all the taxpayers of Colorado. It has even raised our car insurance premiums. Now the fools want to change the law to hold the car thieves more accountable! It’s like a repeat of the new and revised fentanyl law that allows you to carry fentanyl and then dump it on the DA to prove whether or not the possession is for distribution or personal use. This change hasn’t slowed down the fentanyl deaths.

Come on folks let’s be honest, if the law makers really cared about the people, they represent they would make it a class 1 felony and stop the thefts. Naw they are too worried about the jaywalkers.

Another good example of cause and effect is during the I-70 remodel at 47th and York CDOT built a $15 million dollar pedestrian over pass that goes over the UP tracks. Guess what? Nobody uses it.

The pedestrians would rather take their chances dodging the trains because the design of the bridge is too cumbersome to use. Another 15 million dollars down the tubes!
