Ironic comment considering the state is so heavily reliant on tourism.

Relying on tourism and despising people that move in then frantically try to change VT to be like wherever they are from, are not mutually exclusive.

There’s nothing ironic about my comment.

We don't want to be. We need SOMETHING to keep our economy turning, and sadly, tourism was the easiest option for investors to get behind. Hopefully we can pull ourselves out of neolib investor hell and spearhead our own path with a real fucking economy.
