As such, the deferred vacation payout previously mentioned is rankling. I believe that out of state owners carry their fair share of the tax burden. Nuff said.

One could counter that it makes no sense to own taxable property where you cannot vote too... Out of state owners carry (willingly) way more than thier fair share. They can always stop buy selling or moving to NH permanently. I live in NH and (willingly) work in MA; comparitively I get nothing for my money, I could quit, but I like my job.
