Well I hope the politicians up there >stay that way, the last thing we need is more "sane" politicians. > Most of Southern New Hampshire is populated with people smart enough to escape the taxes of massachusetts (taxachusetts), and go live where there isn't any sales or income taxes. However, it isn't the politicians fault that there are no sales or income taxes; any person who wants to be a governor of NH and says that a sales or income tax may be necessary in the future becomes very unpopular very quickly (and this has happened too!) and just won't make it. So, in effect, if they want a job, they just better state that they will oppose any sales tax/ income tax bill that may come alone. roger m levasseur ucbvax!unmvax!nmtvax!maurice
