And productivity is low and not measured. Leaders just want zero problems and if that means more hires, so be it. They look the other way and just want to be voted back in at any cost. Always looking at what voters may think of any actions they take. Yes, taxes are high but the role of government is not to redistribute income. Nobody said they had to play RobinHood. They are supposed to be fair, not punitive. And yes, as a prior poster said, if what other states do is the barometer for NH, then why no sales tax, why no income tax ? I get it, leaders would rather tax those who cannot vote and seek ways to lower their burden at the expense of others.

There are no more hires.
Very hard to find help in this labor market.
And as I have stated... NH has income and sales taxes.
Income taxes provide about half of the State's revenue. Sale taxes about 3/5th and the remainder is a property tax.
Whereas anyone can choose to make NH their primary residence. Change their DL, vehicle and voting registration, etc.
