Yesterday I got a warning from Parler. No, not Facebook, or Twitter, Parler. Over what? I was surprised. I shared yesterday’s news about Sununu and Donchess. Sununu is cutting spending and taxes as a form of COVID19 mandate relief, he says. The Nashua Mayor, a Democrat, says that means he’ll have to raise taxes. Democrats don’t cut spending, and how did that get me flagged?

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.
School Funding: Lower Taxes, Same Student Achievement
If you had the Triangle of Light (from Tomb Raider), you could just go back in time to 1998, the year of the Claremont II decision. You don’t have that, but you have something almost as good — a filing cabinet.
‘Your money should follow my child’
A chant that has been gaining popularity is that where education is concerned, ‘the money should follow the child’. A second, related chant is that ‘parents should be able to decide how to spend their education dollars’.
AFP-NH Puts a Focus on 10 Key Legislative Priorities for 2021
Last week American’s for Prosperity New Hampshire published a list of legislative priorities for the Granite State in 2021. They’ve put a much-needed focus on ten pieces of legislation covering Education, Licensing, Free Speech, Asset Forfeiture, Health Care, and (believe it or not) Climate Change (sort of).
Belknap Actually Lowers Taxes- This is not a joke!
Our late 3-term governor, Meldrim Thomson, coined the slogans “Low taxes are the result of low spending.” On this past Tuesday night, the Belknap County Delegation, comprised of all 18 of its elected state representatives, took that to heart, so for the first time in a long time the Belknap County taxes for this year … Read more
Finally, Republicans delivering for Taxpayers! Belknap County delegation delivers on campaign promise
I hope that other elected Republicans see this and know that this is, in part, why they were elected – that Government doesn’t have to keep growing all the time: In November the people of Belknap county elected a 100% Republican delegation. The first harvest has come in early. With citizens facing the difficulties left … Read more
Bernie Supporter Who Made The (Now Iconic) Mittens Was Driven Out of Business by Burdensome Government Taxation.
Have you seen the Bernie meme with the mittens? He’s turning up everywhere, and people have been asking where they can buy the mittens. But you can’t get them. The woman who made them had to close up her business. Why? Federal taxes.
CT Governor Wants Regional Board to Raise the Gas Tax (TCI) Because His State Needs the Money.
The folks who pushed, promoted, and signed on to the Transportation Climate Initiative (TCI) are so cute. They keep insisting that this is about saving the planet. We’ll reduce emissions. Gaia will love us. Sorry, as with all such schemes, the goal is to milk the sick cow for a few more bucks before it dies.
New Left-Wing Tax Schemes Seek to Tax Wages Long After You Move And No Matter Where You Earn Your Money
Early on, when Covidism was getting its feet wet, we predicted the inevitable problem for Blue States with governors like Cuomo and Newsom and Baker. These High-Tax big-budget money-pits were locking down their golden goose, but they’d never let government suffer for it.
Data Point – Best and Worst Taxed States
While NH Progressives focus ONLY on property tax, in New Hampshire the overall tax burden is always one of the lowest in the nation. But Democrats never, EVER want to talk about that.
NH Lawsuit: I Think Taxxachusetts Has Screwed Itself Again
New Hampshire has a lawsuit against Massachusetts. The Bay State tweaked its non-resident tax rules when the Rona hit. Anyone forced to work remotely who never had or was forced to work remotely more often would still pay Mass. taxes on those remote wages.
NH Formally Declines to Foist a Massive Regional Gas Tax on Struggling Granite Staters
Whatever our thoughts may be about Chris Sununu regarding Emergency orders (not good, if you didn’t notice), he got this one right. New Hampshire, along with Maine, has opted not to sign on to the Transportation Climate Initiative memorandum of understanding.
Taxes, Mayor Joyce Craig, and Silence in Manchester
Having recently received my tax bill in Manchester, I noticed something. The tax increase, projected by both Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig and the Board of Aldermen at .49%, was actually nearly triple that amount at 1.4%. In and of itself, a 1.4% tax increase isn’t earth-shattering.
Are we gonna start seeing “Paying your taxes is Patriotic!” again? Shameless
Well, we’re already seeing that with Biden apparently winning the Oval Office (but remember that the political Fat Lady hasn’t sung yet), Democrats are already starting to “fall back in love” with the American flag (KTVU) after 4 years of all-but-despising it because Trump was President (whereas most on the Right ALWAYS are in love … Read more
What Was Hunter Biden Doing in China?
What Was Hunter Biden Doing in China? Heck, I don’t know the answer to the question. Given he is under investigation for his actions perhaps we will know someday. Hunter is Joe Biden’s son. Joe took Hunter to China on the plane with him.
Facebook Doodlings – For Those That Haven’t Figured This Out Yet – Downshifting of Spending Is Meaningless
I just can’t understand why the citizenry of NH (or anywhere else, for that matter) hasn’t figured out that when politicians start talking about “downshifting” of costs from a higher level of government to a lower one is nothing but HOGWASH!!!!

I am asking the Board of Aldermen to veto the Collective Bargaining Agreement for the Board of Fire Commissioners of the City of Nashua for the sake of the Nashua taxpayers.
Alderman Say No But Nashua Taxpayers’ Will Be Paying for This Proposal for Many Years
It seems like some of Nashua’s Aldermen are telling residents that they will not have to pay for the Performing Arts Center, however, this is a lie.

Once again, the mayor and the Board of Aldermen are going to kick Nashua taxpayer while they are down. Tonight at 6:30 PM, there is a special meeting to address a double-digit increase on all sewer use fees over the next two years.
