Spokane residents rebel over dirty dishes

Then can have my ‘Tide’ when they pry my soapy fingers off..

[shadeaud]

Reminds me of the time we would have a cigarette run. Driving down from N.Y.C. to Raleigh pack up the van with smokes and bring them back. Gas was very cheap and the money we saved on the tax was a win-win.

[msrngtp2002]

GEEZ - I live in PA - I better stock up now!

[muggs]

"How much is this really costing us?" Beck said. "Aren't we transferring the environmental consequences to something else?"

Plus the extra gas and air pollution driving longer distances to get the soap.

[LearsFool]

Reminds me of some of the idiots where I work, who leave their urine percolating in the wally all day in order to “save the world”.

Whenever I see that, I go by flushing every single one of them, then turn on the faucet full-blast while I leisurely wash up - just to tick ‘em off. (Childish, I know. But it makes me feel better. :-)

LOL! The lawmakers in Washington State are as stupid as the idiots in Trenton, NJ. I fear that the ones in DC are as equally stupid, if not worse.

Common denominator, Democrats....UGH!

I am in the market so to speak.

Anybody have any suggestions on where I can get some cheaper smokes?

[Popman]

Truly, we have entered bizarro world

The tipping point is coming

Little BS things like PC dishwasher soap leaving dirty dishes are the things that push people over the edge

[TYVets]

Would the procedure for operating the water saving commodes work?

Simply wash the dishes 3 times?

Liberal Democrats & Environutties

[popdonnelly]

A fine example of how liberal solutions (a dish soap solution, in this case) don’t work. The government has to subsidize failure once again.

[Girlene]

A bill on Capitol Hill would impose a nationwide ban.

Better stock up on dishwasher detergent also, bhfred!

Roll your own. But buy your tobacco fast - real fast - before the tax goes up 2200% on April 1.

[Joe Boucher]

If this b.s happens then the little general store in Priest Lake, Idaho had better stock up on some good phosphate rich dish soaps cause they are going to get bum rushed for the product when Washington state stops its sale.

I have a friend going this route...

Anybody think we don’t have big government in this country? Now they’re telling you what kind of dish soap to use.

[Morgan in Denver]

Find an American Indian reservation. No federal taxes on cigarettes there.

[vollmond]

(In truth, the ban applies to the sale of phosphate detergent — not its use or possession — so Marcotte is not in any legal trouble.)

That loophole will be fixed.

If it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down.
