Vermont Legislators Admit to Cheating the System. Are They Justi...[Hide Story...]
State Rep. David Zuckerman (P-Burlington) has a confession to make that might sound to some like political suicide.
He bills taxpayers for his “mileage” to and from the Statehouse — as much as $152 a week — even on days when he gets a ride with fellow lawmakers or lobbyists.
Zuckerman also takes full advantage of the $61 daily meal allowance afforded to legislators when they are in session, but admits he rarely spends that much on food.

The owners of Vermont Yankee picked a hell of a time to launch an advertising blitz about the nuclear plant’s safety.

VT Considers Medical Marijuana Dispensaries[Hide Story...]
David Millson lifts a gold-colored metal pipe to his lips and inhales deeply. He exhales a cloud of pungent marijuana smoke into his living room, takes another drag and then relaxes into a lounge chair.
The 69-year-old retiree from New Haven repeats this regimen several times a day to alleviate the symptoms of multiple sclerosis, the degenerative disease he has battled for more than 20 years. Marijuana doesn’t do much for the pain, but it helps Millson cope with the depression he says comes with “slowly losing your ability to do stuff.”
