Reply to I'm moving out to New Hampshire for university, what do you guys think is the best part of living in the state, and what's the worst? by Henry_Privette
The best part is nature. 4 seasons of outdoor fun. You're going to want to take up skiing, mountain biking, and running.
Worst part maybe the snow and cold? Make sure you have sturdy winter boots and a parka.

The $4 comment was somewhat tongue in cheek. It is a shock it costs money to run the govt. I appreciate the lesson. The one of the goals of govt should be to operate as efficiently as possible to not waste the taxpayers money. If it was capable of doing that quite possibly people might feel like they are getting a value for their hard earned money.

Any high level politician who drives himself around in his personally owned minivan is okay in my book.

He sided with St. Gobain by vetoing the House and Senate bill to allow medical monitoring in NH. His NH Supreme Court refused to look at the facts and took his side. He’s got to go if he won’t stand up for all the citizens who were poisoned by St. Gobain.

According to Citizens United, businesses are people too. Lock him up.

Rocky Mountain ATV, and Revzilla have a decent return system for exchanging if your a size off. Decent size charts and you can do a quick google search to find out if the product fits large or small. Freedom Cycle has some inventory and books with plenty to order from. Most of the staff I talked with are riders and get it. Good luck

Sununu is fine and fits NH. That’s really all it is. “I love my trans son and my AR-15” energy

MARGARET BRENNAN: Are you going to engage on things like this? Like- like Sanders and DeSantis has in terms of issues on gender and issues of race?
GOV. SUNUNU: There should be absolute leadership on that, about what that's about. And this idea that, you know, you have to- you know, we have forced language, that we have forced ideas on our kids that we're going to force anything–-

Yeah? So each individual gets a 2,400 exemption, so for people such as you are so concerned about, they will not have 2400 in interest or dividends to tax, so I am not understanding your concern.

People pay a fortune on houses, 1/8 acre plots of land and insanely high property taxes to live in areas of NJ because they're close to NYC.

I came from NJ years ago and I always get a chuckle from people complaining about property taxes here. I mean yeah, they're high, but they're still way less than what they are in the area of NJ that I'm from. To your point, I'll take no sales or income tax mixed with higher property taxes any day, it's still more affordable than a lot of other areas.

NH like just about every other state, cannot do deficits. They cannot spend 4 dollars for every dollar of taxes, they can spend approximately one dollar for every dollar of taxes.
Meanwhile, I know this will come as a shock, but it actually costs money to run a government and provide the infrastructure and services that a government provides.

I was responding to that comment. Everyone can put money in a tax deferred savings account, IRA, 401K SEP etc. They are all exempt.

This. For his first couple terms including while Mango Mussolini was in office, Sununu was as sane as Republicans got. He stayed out of the culture wars and wasn't a covidiot either. He tried to do right by New Hampshire and not get involved in national level BS as most of the country's GOP went full Q Cucks Klan.
Then Biden took office, and Sununu changed drastically. If you've been paying attention at all, it's like he's a totally different person since Jan 2021.

Again, it's not nepotism if voters vote you in on name recognition

He was voted in so it's not nepotism. Name recognition got him those votes.
And for those who are incapable of interjecting their own assumptions into things...I'm not defending him, just clarifying that that's not what nepotism is

Other than the Police State which is way too large and over funded, please provide examples where you believe there are too many state or local government employees.

Define ‘Hunting shots’. A gun shot is a gun shot. Weapons and ammunition can make distinctive sounds, but I believe ‘Hunting shots’ would require witness, and shooter intent, at least.

Education Administration, police, and general govt admin. Cut 10% headcount and the same work could and would be done. Business does it every couple of years. Why can govt?
NH govt does a lot of things that I like fiscally. But anytime there is an opportunity to keep money that I have earned and use it, I will take it.
