The United States had a billion cubic meters of helium in the National Helium Reserve in Texas. It was the only helium reserve in the country, and a strategic resource for the United States. But storing it was losing money, so the geniuses in Congress decided to privatize it. Helium Privatization Act of 1996 sold off helium at below-market prices and is the reason we now have a shortage of it.
No more balloons

One of the rare occasions where I can legitimately say "I don't care if there are or aren't balloons" at Husker games. I never bought balloons nor do I know anyone who bought balloons. This still being a thing or no longer being a thing doesn't impact me at all.

So is it safe to breathe in helium ? Seeing how they have to refine it… and it’s biproduct of uranium… seems like a bad idea
very happy this passed, of course the boomers are mad, they won't get to choke a turtle any more
Since the children are deciding that we can no longer release balloons, what we can say and read, may I suggest
we all be forced to wear the following while on campus and at games.
Then after the game we can head back to our luxurious state funded apartments.

I kind of feel being anti-littering would have bipartisan support. I ****** hate litter and go crazy when I see someone throw trash out their car window. Unfortunately the game day balloons are kind of littering via the sky
How many balloons do you see laying around on the ground?
I don't care much for littering myself but balloons aren't something I'd be looking to target.
Clearly animal abuse according to the UNL student government. The snake might eat that balloon and I should be surprised it didn't.

Now you’re talking. Something tangible. But no, that would require critical thought and it would be very difficult to accomplish. Much better to think up mindless nonsense while sitting on the crapper in the dorm. No way to get the Bluto’s to rally around something that will cut into spring break.
The have a religious belief in climate change covid and anything else the millionaire and billionaire corporatists tell them to believe.
Another present from Clinton alongside the herpes that fat intern now deals with
Of course this message board managed to turn balloons into a political issue.
They call anyone who disagrees with them "snowflakes" and then start crying when someone says they might take away their balloons. It's hilarious

It's freaking balloons man. If you think that's a political issue you need to get a grip.
So you're saying it was a waste of time for student government to even vote on the matter? After all, it's just freaking balloons..
