Unfortunately, New Hampshire's "Live Free or Die" motto seems to be supplanted by "Live Free and Screw Everyone Else." Perhaps we will see the change on new registration plates.
The argument that "other states have similar schemes" is lame. New Hampshire has long refused to address the issue of broad-based taxation. Instead, the state now looks to those who get no say in taxation policy to give to those who do have a say. Even in high tax Connecticut out of state property owners can vote on tax issues.
The proposals are nothing more than a socialist wealth re-distribution ploy. New Hampshire residents should keep a sharp lookout. This sort of government scheme can always be expanded to bite you in the wallet. Socialist ideas have a way of doing that.
