Brunswick, state make pot arrest
BRUNSWICK — Police arrested a 33-year-old man Tuesday, seizing 82 marijuana plants and a sophisticated hydroponic system.
Police arrested Eric Colgan of 90 Maquoit Road in Brunswick at about 5 p.m. The arrest was the result of a search warrant, part of an ongoing drug investigation by the Brunswick Police and the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency.
All of the plants and the hydroponic growing system were seized in the arrest.
Colgan is being charged with aggravated cultivation of marijuana and aggravated furnishing of scheduled drugs, both Class C felonies. The charges are considered aggravated because the alleged growth operation was within 1,000 feet of Brunswick High School.

The parrot sez, "What did the pot do, boil over? Then he went into his ROFLMAO routine. What a wack job.

Really?
Ok, unless I'm missing something, this whole problem relates to First Wind joining forces with Algonquin because they needed some cash, but that would violate the Maine power deregulation law.
Did I miss the mark?

It didn't
People starved in the streets, died from all sorts of easily treated diseases, and died from old age and neglect.
As for Government intervention. As long as there has been "government" there has been intervention so you have to go back 3,000,000 and more years to reach "before Government intervention". The choice now is not between no intervention and lots of intervention. Its between the tyranny of religious dogma on the right and the freedom of personal growth and responsibility on the left.

Fantasy vs. reality
Every year Maine has a balanced budget. The state is not deeply in the red. The credit rating companies (as corrupt as they are) agree Maine has its debt well under control. The Governor Constitutionally can not "supervise" the State Legislature. The most he has been able to do so far is bully senior citizens, the infirmed, and children.
