Editorial: How Trump will hurt you

Posted on January 16, 2017 |
By Angelo S. Lynn



As Friday’s inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump approaches, it’s important for Vermonters to understand the impact his actions will have on them and the nation. Put aside his boorishness and childish need to get in the last dig on anyone who challenges him, and just focus on what he hopes to undo in the first 100 days.

• Dismantling the Affordable Care Act: If Republicans go ahead and axe funding for Obamacare before a new plan is in place, here’s what happens to Vermonters:

Editorial: You've got to give a little respect to get a little respect

Posted on January 12, 2017 |
By Angelo S. Lynn



Here’s a hunch based on President-elect Donald Trump’s first news conference in the past six months: Mr. Trump will be the least respected, and most disrespected, president of our times. That’s not because of his policies, though those will certainly cause many to oppose him, but because he cannot handle criticism; rather he lashes out childishly in response to anyone who challenges him.

Editorial: Gov. Scott Changes, solutions will come from the bottom up

Posted on January 9, 2017 |
By Angelo S. Lynn



Vermont Gov. Phil Scott stood before the gathered assembly at the Statehouse inauguration this past Thursday and gave a heartfelt and impassioned speech that spoke to the changing tide he will bring to state government. It’s a tide that will bubble from the bottom up, he said, asking those in the front-line trenches to step forward with their solutions, and asking Vermonters at every level to buckle down, buck up and put their best foot forward.

Editorial: Looking back on 2016, to see what's ahead in the new year

Posted on December 30, 2016 |
By Angelo S. Lynn



Something there is about the human condition that seeks to review the past year lived as we embrace the new. Newspapers, magazines and digital blogs create Top 10 stories, Top 20 photos, Top 12 best digital gadgets — whatever the meme might be. The goal is to get readers to pause a moment, think and reflect on what we might have learned so that we might create a better world (or at least better ourselves) in the year to come.

Editorial: Bridge delay offers chance to get everything in place

Posted on December 19, 2016 |
By Angelo S. Lynn



Better safe than sorry. That’s the saying that seems most apt in light of the Vermont Agency of Transportation’s decision last Wednesday to conduct an Environmental Assessment of the Main Street and Merchant Row rail bridges project in downtown Middlebury. The decision, which will delay the project by at least a year, was not taken lightly, but made in the face of a probable lawsuit over potential environmental violations.

Guest Editorial: Why fake news is dangerous

Posted on December 12, 2016 |
By Lee Hamilton



Franklin Roosevelt once said, “Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely.” He was talking about why education matters in a representative democracy, but it’s a safe bet that had he known about fake internet news, he’d have said the same thing — except maybe with more pointed words.
