Amen to that!
I'll add this:
The only way the taxpayers can keep government spending in check is by minimizing the amount of taxes collected.
Our political system rewards government expenditure. Whether it is jobs, pay and benefits for government employees, benefits for the "poor" or infrastruction projects, politicians are rewarded at the ballot box for delivering the goods.
I intend to move to NH in three years to escape the foolishness of CT's taxes and other quality of life issues. Please do me the favor of NOT turning NH into the same.
