Default Petition Outside Market Basket in Concord

Anyone else get to read the petition outside of Market Basket in Concord. The woman holding the petition was asking anyone that walked in or out to sign, with a very brief explanation of what is was.

Bet you cannot guess what issue it was in relation to. It was a Pro petition.

Thumbs down

I bet it was NOT a petition to lower tomato prices.

I think I got a copy of this same petition in my Chinese fortune cookie last week. What next?: Every roll of Charmin, because that's where it belongs.

Arrow Same Thing Happened in South Nashua

I was approached a few weeks ago in Nashua. Going for signatures from people that this issue doesn't affect in the least is kind of smelly. At least the person doing the petition was in fact a Winnipesaukee boater. When I responded that it is my feeling that it is the uneducated boaters that are the true problem, he agreed. His thought was uneducated boaters going too fast.

Default Tried before

They get people who knows nothing about boating to sign a pettition. The representatives knows that they are voters and that is all they care about. many uneducated laws were pass only because uneducated people will vote for them. They call this democracy.

You don't even have to leave the comfort of your home. You just have to confirm a signature with a click of a link when you get an e-mail from them. That's easy!
