Timothy Horrigan is a staple of the New Hampshire Democrat Party. He’s been around a while, held numerous offices, and every now and then says something fascinating. Maybe more often than that, but often enough that we hear about it.

If Andru Volinsky wants to Cut Property Taxes, He Should Become a School Superintendent
Andru Volinsky, a candidate for governor of New Hampshire, has a problem understanding how property taxes are paid in the Granite State. He has lived here long enough to know that property taxes are paid at the local level and we have had, for several hundred years, Town Meetings where annual budgets are voted on … Read more
Riot Wrecked Property Owners in Minneapolis Can’t Get Demolition Permits Until They Pay All of Their 2020 Taxes
The city of Minneapolis was the epicenter of the recent ‘disturbances.’ Riots. Looting. Arson. Destruction. Property owners who have not been driven off need to clear damage and debris before they can rebuild. But before the city issues a demolition permit, they want them to pay the balance of their 2020 taxes.
Another Massachusetts Cross-Border tax scam?
A bunch of lawyers on the Supreme Court said states could tax online sales as if the buyer was in the state making the purchase. No one in New Hampshire, even the Democrats, liked that much. And they seem to agree on a similar issue. Massachusetts is taxing employees in NH, working remotely on jobs in the Bay State.
Concord Monitor staff member doesn’t understand why Property Taxes keep rising. DumbA$$
What a maroon – but hey, he works for Pravda on the Merrimack so you almost can swear right this instant on what his world view is on this issue. He’s got the normal Progressive “chip on his shoulder” about taxation and it’s always that somebody else has to pay for me.”
School Union Bosses Are Holding Your Children’s Future Hostage
With fewer than four weeks remaining before school begins, union bosses, school administrative units (SAUs), and school boards seem to be conspiring to hold the school year hostage at the price of our children’s future.
Palate Cleanser: Teen Gets first Paycheck and Discovers “Taxes!”(Check Out his Reaction)
I really didn’t have all that much in taxes taken out on my first job – older than dirt, now. Still, I was a bit miffed that someone ELSE was getting a spiff off MY labor. MY LABOR.
Nashua: A City without Leadership
Most residents do not understand how much money it is costing us when the City of Nashua retains assessors who do not care about the quality of their work. The result is literally tens of thousands of our tax dollars being erroneously and irresponsibly given away.
Shouldn’t we Get a Tax Refund for Schools Being Closed?
Have you reached out to your town tax collector in the past month for a partial refund of your real estate taxes? Actually, have you ever looked at your itemized real estate tax bill to see how much of it goes to funding your local schools? It’s a huge portion of your taxes, trust me.
Smokers, Mass. lawmakers may have saved N.H. businesses from tax hike
Cigarette smokers and flavored tobacco scavengers from Massachusetts produced a surge of New Hampshire tobacco tax revenue that almost single-handedly prevented a business tax increase, preliminary, unaudited state figures suggest.
Towns can now Tuition Students to Religious Schools
In 2017, the Town of Croydon implemented a town tuitioning program. While getting approval from the State Board of Education, it was told that no religious schools could be included in the program.
It’s Make America Great vs. Make Government Grate
I’d like to thank Democrats for being so accommodating. Whether we mean the local, state, or federal Democrats in elected office, the contrast is much the same. Republicans want to make citizens great while Democrats want to make big government greater (and more grating).
So Selfish Socialist Andru Volinsky believes Gov. Sununu is responsible for high Property Taxes?
I guess you could call this “No-Fault Civics”. You would think that someone who is seeking the highest elected office in NH would understand the idea that local Property Taxes are the result of spending at the local levels that are confirmed NOT by any Governor but by the local taxpayers.
NH Dems Take Note: Massachusetts Has Mass Public School Teacher Layoff ‘cuz COVID19
Towns in Massachusetts are laying off public school teachers. In some cases, more than one hundred per district. Why? The COIVID19 shutdown Democrats were so hot for has harpooned tax revenues: no commerce, no money, no revenues, no paychecks.
Quick Thought: Hmmm – GraniteGrok Gives Jean Shaheen a “Thank You”?
We’re fairly harsh on our senior Senator to the US Senate and most of the time, we’re actively using the second part of one of our various mottos (“Spank’em when they’re wrong but thank’em when they’re right”) today.
Democrat Ann Kuster Admits, for the Second Time, That Republican Steve Negron Could Flip Her Seat
Last November, a fake impeachment, virus socialism, and a few riots ago, Democrat Ann Kuster – who stands by all three of those things (by the way) – admitted that Republican Steve Negron could ‘Flip Annie’s seat.’ It’s not “Annie’s” seat, but six months later, she has repeated the claim.
After Brutal 2020, Tax Hikes Could Loom for N.H. Businesses in 2021
The House on Thursday rejected a Republican proposal to prevent significant business tax increases that are likely to hit on January 1. Unless legislators act between now and the end of the year, New Hampshire businesses that survive 2020 should prepare to begin paying higher tax rates in 2021.
Democrats Stick with Plan to Punish Small Business Owners in New Hampshire
In late April, New Hampshire Democrats drew a line in the sand. The government had shut down businesses that knee-capped revenues. Decreased revenue would trigger a massive tax increase on job creators. It seems unfair, but these are Democrats. The government always comes first.
Bet on it – Volinsky is going to turn us into NJ: “I will lower your property taxes”.
Two-term Executive Councilor Andru Volinsky doubled down on his refusal to pledge to veto a sales or income tax Friday as he formally filed his candidacy for governor. Instead, Volinsky created a pledge of his own – he’s calling it “the pledge of the future.” It says,
Economy Adds 2.5 Million Jobs in May – Unemployment Drops to 13.3%
We still have a long way to go, but this is a damn good start. Not Because we added 2.5 Million jobs after putting a historic number of people out of work, but because the “experts” predicted terrible numbers and we got the opposite.
