Yesterday the NH House voted to make wearing seat belts mandatory for all ages. Once the prestigious title-holder of Sole Remaining State with a Love for Fun and Recklessness ("SRSWALFFR"), the Granite State has sold out. Pricetag? $3.7mm.
To put this into perspective, Merrill's CEO John Thain spent just over a quarter of that on redocorating his office. In BMar dollars $3.7mm is a ~ 3 dozen maseratis. My favorite: $3.7mm = 617,000 NYC beers = 1.2mm NH beers, or a round of beers for each NH resident.
Subamaru: 1
Freedom: 0*
*Call it a draw if I get my beer on the House
