Default To anyone that thinks we need a broad based tax

I have lived NH, DE, CT and MA over the last 50 years. We just moved back to NH a couple of months ago from CT. For anyone who thinks we need a broad based tax up here just take a look at CT. 20+ years ago they adopted a "temporary" income tax which is now at 6% and the state is TOTALLY dependent on it. By the way, CT still runs a defecit. The lack of a sales tax and income tax forces this state to be effecient. This is a VERY well run state and a great place to live. If you've been here a while you might not realize what we have. For anyone that moves here from out of state and wants a broad based tax that license plate is for you!
