Eliminated the need to burn over 40,000 lbs of coal as it takes about 1 pound of coal to generate 1kwh of electricity. Or about 294,000 cubic feet of natural gas as it takes around 7.36 cubic feet of natural gas to make a kwh. all from my roof so it’s not taking up any space that isn’t already taken by just shingles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Dakota then Texas then Alaska then Washington and finally Idaho 16 year ago. but speaking on Californians most I have meet are the conservatives fleeing. We are a bunch of white supremacist in Idaho. Liberals aren’t fleeing california in great numbers. Mostly conservatives show up from california in my area and I welcome them as they bring shit loads of money and pay into the state funds. The Californians coming to my state are definetly conservatives and it is shoring up our conservative base.

I sure haven't seen that in the Boise area, Boise is kinda liberal, and almost all of the people I've meet fleeing California, Portland and Seattle are pushing for liberal policies like they're fleeing, No powered watercraft on lakes, anti-hunting, despise off road vehicles, and (God forbid on a snowmobile forum), Snowmobiles.

While Boise leans liberal the treasure valley isn’t. Liberals can’t afford green living. It’s only conservatives buying EV’s and producing their own power as conservatives in my state are the only ones that pay enough in taxes to take advantage of it.

Well Boise is the bulk of the population of the Treasure Valley, From Ontario to Mt. Home, and up to McCall the liberals are pushing for their Ideals. That pretty much covers the Treasure Valley.

I see you did an edit there, are you sure you live in the Treasure Valley, Liberals have been buying up all the homes driving prices up to the point locals can't afford them, many come from the tech industry and have sold their homes for stupid money, so houses in Idaho seem ridiculously cheap for them. I see the same thing happening in Southern Texas. (example: a friend in McCall had a small 800 square foot A-Frame cabin she paid $105 thousand dollars for, 3 years later she sold it $280 thousand to a couple that work at Amazon's headquarters in Seattle. But if you think it's conservatives moving to the Treasure Valley, all the locals I know will disagree with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t met any liberals moving here. It’s just all conservatives fleeing California and other places. Conservative’s love tax credits that allow them to keep more of their own money. Lived here for a bit and only see it get more conservative with all the implants. Property values have sky rocketed, yes they have. Lots of business owners, and just over all wealthy conservatives moving here fleeing higher tax areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can disagree all they want. They just hate implants cause of preconceived notions run wild in this state. We will charge people with drug possession in my area for having Hemp rope. As a member of the Republican Party I can assure you these implants are really locking up the Conservative Party. Our voter roles have grown huge. Public information you can share with your ill informed friends. Call Ada county and Canyon county as the treasure valley…. About the only democrat county in this state is county Sun Valley resides in. Nez pearce will swing liberal as well cause Indians jan 2020 register voter roles May of 2023 voter roles Republican Party has gained 40,000 members since Jan 2020 and libs have gain in 6,000 in the same time frame in Ada county. Canyon county(treasure valley) has gained 17-18k Republican voters and Dems have gained like 2,000 voters in that 3 year time frame. Conservatives blew this area up with the ingress from california!! It’s awesome as they bring big money with them! Dont believe what a bunch of Ammon Bundy Twitter followers tell you… see the data and feel free to send it to your buddies…. They are so uninformed it’s pathetic to see other republicans so fucking stupid in my state as our state is attracting conservatives like 10-1 and just becoming more and more conservative! All this influx we have experienced is pretty much conservative values. https://sos.idaho.gov/elections-division/voter-registration-totals/ Edited June 5, 2023 by BOHICA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrested for Hemp. 😂, cross the border into Ontario and see all the Idaho plates buying Pot there, If I remember right there are 9 Marijuana stores that are huge, if you think the small town of Ontario is supporting that you're crazy. Almost all my friends are Forrest Service, BLM, or IDL employees, and of course people from the airports. Nobody talks twitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
