RES 18-1962 11/27/2018 7:22 PM  Against Wells Fargo acknowledged in 2017 that it signed up hundreds of thousands of auto loan customers for insurance they did not need.  Is St Paul's garbage program following that example? If so, regulators should slap the city with a big fine and order payment of refunds to cowed customers. +1
RES 18-1962 11/25/2018 3:00 PMShawn Against Does the city council have a Nazi complex? Seems like they want even more compliance for their fascist trash program. You've already threatened to take my house, now what? If you vote in favor for civil penalties, you're a sad human being. +3
RES 18-1962 11/24/2018 6:03 AMMelissa Critchley Against I'm extremely concerned with the direction the city council is heading in. The council serves the people. Not the other way around. +4
RES 18-1962 11/23/2018 5:14 PMBruce Clark Against It seems as though the Council is trying an under the table method to enforce citizen compliance to flawed ordinances that it p***es. Specifically, this seems like an attempt by Council member Brendmoen (and others?) to further silence critics and opponents of the new mandatory trash policy in St. Paul. The City is saying: If you choose to protest our "one size fits all" trash policy by not paying your invoice, and not using the mandatory service---we'll now come at you with civil penalties. What's the next step? Police roundups? The Council is on a slippery slope to authoritarian rule. +6
