Gov Sununu Proposes Tax and Spending Cuts – Nashua Mayor Says He’ll Have to Raise Taxes
We predicted this from the earliest days of the government-imposed reductions in tax revenue (‘cuz COVID19). Democrats would slaughter their tax base with restrictions then punish taxpayers afterward by raising taxes. Republicans might cut spending to offset the pain they caused.
The Minimum Wage is Actually Zero
If you have no job, you have no wages. When that is the case you are getting the minimum wage. ZERO dollars per hour. Biden has a plan to raise the federal minimum wage to $15. If we go there it will kill over a million jobs according to the CBO. Do you trust your government?

Son of HB576 lives! Maybe NO will Finally Mean NO
When a Budget Committee decides to zero out a General Ledger account line item in a budget, it is supposed to be No means No! For that line item, you can’t spend a penny on it. I wrote House Bill 576 (HB576) because I learned that is not how it really worked.
