Ah, yes, that makes sense to me!

This year we bought a real one, but we’ve used artificial before. I’m pretty neutral on the whole thing; love real trees, but artificial trees at least don’t kill real trees (unless you count the likely toxic manufacturing process)

I keep hoping that the people will come to their senses at some point. But I suspect that this is just what America is. I’ve never in my lifetime been more ashamed to be an American.
