I mean not completely wrong, not everyone receiving the money actually needs it. Heck lot of people probably don’t even need to pay for heat.

That’s not to say the majority of people receiving the help won’t need it. I myself spent 515 on my last fill-up for heating oil and that definitely hurt. Some are going to save it for an emergency which also isn’t a bad thing to have since inflation’s still an issue. And yes, SOME may spend it on things they don’t need, which tells me those people must be in a good spot in life. The assumption that Mainers are just going to waste it on frivolity like @ruffled-Grouse is insulting to Mainers though. Assumptions like that about a state that thrives on community is bullshit.

But but. The Poster is implying you’re spending all your money on weed and is a lazy Mainer! It’s “your fault” that you can’t afford the high prices of propane and heating oil.

Who said it was? Oh that's right. You did. By going off on the guy who said the weed sales would be boosted. As if he was wrong. I love weed because it makes my ol lady put up with my shit lol

This made me laugh, cuz weed was illegal during my first 2 marriages, and I don't know if it would have saved them, but I would have given a few less fucks.
