AAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't beleave it!! My home state is turning into a
communist block!!!!
I never in a million years would think that Maine
would enact such a law...especially FIRST!!!
Air quality in Maine is a hellava lot better than it
is here in Northern Virginia!!
Not only that but Maine is the poorest state in the
Union...those people work hard for what little they
make and many cannot afford to buy a new car.
Lets look at this...The average income in Maine is
under 30k yet the car costs are about the same
everywhere in the union. 
I know they're not knocking down your door and
confiscating your car ...YET...It's a domino
effect...get one past and the rest becomes easier.
