Oh, look—another day in the People's Republic of Colorado, where Democrat overlords in Denver can't resist dipping their grubby hands deeper into your wallet. This so-called "trash fee" isn't some innocent service charge; it's a straight-up tax grab dressed up in bureaucratic drag to dodge TABOR's voter safeguards. Why? Because heaven forbid they actually ask the people footing the bill if they want to cough up more for the privilege of hauling away their own garbage.

Remember, folks: TABOR was Colorado's hard-won shield against exactly this kind of fiscal sleight-of-hand, born from the Reagan-era wisdom that government spends your money like a drunk sailor on shore leave. But under one-party Dem rule, it's just another speed bump they swerve around. Redirect property tax cash to fund their green fantasies or union pork? Sure, why not—while you're stuck paying double for the basics.

This is peak progressive playbook: Tax, spend, repeat, then gaslight you into thinking it's "progress." Time to wake up, Coloradans. Demand real accountability—vote out the fee fiends, slash the bureaucracy, and reclaim your cash. Because if we let them rename taxes as "fees," what's next? A "breathing surcharge" for existing in their utopia?
