    Not being served well

    The state news has been interesting lately. The Shumlin administration wants to raise our property taxes and our gas taxes. In the the same broadcast we heard that there is consideration of paying college students to stay working in Vermont for five years after they graduate. Why not encourage them to stay in a state with lower taxes?

    It is too expensive to live here, and we can’t afford higher taxes.

    Oh, and then there is the possibility of higher income taxes coming to Vermonters as well. We are not being served well by this administration.
