ITD I couldn't have said it better..... I have no issues when Taxes legitimatly having to go up. But the issue facing NH and many states is that Taxes are going up because of a shortage of funds, which is do to POOR MANAGEMENT of the current income of the states and towns. The government at any level is wasteful, and the time has come where people need to make the government officals responsible for there wastefulness.... But insted a vast majority of the public sits and watchs, and complains, insted of reacting....People need to question there elected officials, and when they are caught with there hands in the till so to speak FIRE THEM....not re-elect them.... There are many politicians out there that people complain about, but they never get removed from office, because the complainers never vote. And as long as old school politicians remain in office the new politicians will learn the old ways. Once the politicians find out that they have to prove themsleves and live up to there promises then things will change.
