Does NH really use these funds for a teapot museum? That would be a waste, IMO.
Just because I chose to purchase a boat doesn't mean I might have more money to give than another person, it is that I chose to spend my money a different way than another person, I am sick of hearing from people "Oh you can afford it, you have a second place a boat and a jetski." No I just chose to buy these things instead of going out to eat all the time, or dumping major money into the stock market or a savings account.
I am sorry but this part of explaining away things is bull.

Rant off
