This week we do a deep dive on the proposed amendments to city ordinances to help deal with the homeless problem. We delve into the role of technology as a tool of possible enslavement or enlightenment. Finally, a quick shout out to RTKNH’s Laurie Ortolano for getting attorney’s fees assigned in her Nashua Right-to-Know case!
Manch Talk
We deep dive into Joyce Craig’s remarkably bad WMUR interview (see for yourself) and discuss who else is running for seats this November. Carla tries to parse out the cognitive dissonance in progressives’ thinking… What is self-ownership?
This week, Tammy and Carla delve once again into a discussion about homelessness, and proffer some solutions. We also chat about PorcFest coming up next week. Get your tix NOW!

Tammy takes us on an in-depth journey through the current New Hampshire budget, especially relating to education funding. And, wow, the next Mayor of Manchester just got a 47% raise!
