Default ....let's copycat on Alaska!

I've said this before, maybe five years ago, but here goes. Only Alaska and NH have both no sales and no income tax. One year residents of Alaska get their Alaska dividend of about 5k/each, paid in April for making it thru the winter. The money comes from BP Amoco,Exxon Mobil, and Chevron for Alaskan oil wells.

So, every time you buy a gallon of gasoline, Alaska residents get to collect a small part of their dividend.

Now, what has New Hampshire got to offer the rest of the country and world similar to Alaska's situation?

Like the Old Man of the Mountain, the NH tax system will not last forever. He hung up there on the side of Cannon mountain for twelve thousand years, all patched together with cement and mending wire as time went by, but finally got washed off the cliff in a big rain storm on May 3, 2003.

If it can happen to the Old Man, can it happen to "no sales tax, no income tax" New Hampshire?
