Month: June 2018

Well, this I was not aware of.

Tonight I read a story about my home state on Yahoo. news.

Vermont subsidizes rich Libs to move here.

Starting in 2019, Vermont will pay people who move there and work remotely for an out-of-state employer $10,000 over two years to cover relocation expenses, coworking memberships, computers, internet, and other work-related expenses. Gov. Phil Scott signed the bill into law on Wednesday (May 30).

Some of us are old enough to remember when Vermont was known as the beckoning country.

In 1965, the Vermont Development Department proclaimed Vermont the “Beckoning Country” and crafted an aggressive ad campaign that included “4 Seasons and 47 Reasons” why tourists should spend their vacation dollars in the state

Well things are a little different now.

Gov. Phil Scott made luring new Vermonters a key to his State of the State address in January. “We know the challenge. We’re losing, on average, six workers from our workforce and three students from our schools, every single day,” he said.

Since he took office in 2017, Scott has challenged various state departments to help resolve the problem posed by the state’s aging population and to make luring young people to the state a high priority.

So now we’re trying to in tice  people to come here from New York City or Connecticut,  buy a home and because we really don’t have that many jobs the State will subsidize you $5000 a year with high speed internet and other stuff so you can perform your big city job from the comfort of your new home in bucolic Vermont  and pay lots of taxes.

So how have we come to this state of affairs?

Well in the first wave from the late sixties early seventies you had the back to the land hippie invasion that brought people like Bernie Sanders to Vermont. Bernie has never earned a paycheck from a private employer in his life. Even Stalin was briefly employed as a weatherman.

This moved Vermont over the course of several decades to the far left politically.

This of course has cause and effect.

Liberals Progressives believe that there is practically nothing that can’t be taxed.  After all it’s not really your money anyway. Because…

Progressives want to give you “single payer” (free) healthcare.  Unfortunately Doctors and nurses won’t work for $15 an hour. The government pays them and the expense of maintain a hospital with money they took from you.  Eventually we’ll have something like Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) .

You can read examples of quality free healthcare here, here, here and here.

And always remember, he who pays the piper calls the tune.

Now when any property owner looks at his property tax bill he/she will notice that about 80% of goes to education indoctrination.  Reading, writing and arithmetic is so 19th century . For that matter even 20th.

No! Schools today are to turn out Social Justice Warriors. 

And what is the biggest social justice cause in the State of Vermont?

Why Climate change of course. And one does one assist in the battle against climate change besides destroying capitalism.

And like our European cousins you stop having kids.

When that happens you become Gezer state.

Vermont’s unemployment rate is a miniscule 2.8%. That’s full employment.

Vermont ranks 47 out of 50 in business tax climate

So where are the good high paying jobs for young people in this state

Our schools are turning out drones instead of thinkers.

The kids that have brains and common sense are getting the hell out.                                         So now we’re paying people to come here.

To live here yet keep their jobs that are out of state.

Elsewhere in the country the economy is BOOMING!

Progressive Liberalism is a mental illness.
