Rather unique. We have no personal taxes (yet), no income nor sales tax. Real Estate Property taxes go primarily to the township for schools and police/fire. They did manage to pass a "statewide" property tax which is redistributed to the poorer towns to support equality in edumacation. I kind of like the system because the fewer layers of goverment the money has to pass through, the more seems to arrive at the final destination... So, to support the State government, we collect on the "sins". Tobacco, gambling and liquor ar the big three. Beer and Wine is sold at grocery or convenience stores, but all liquor is exclusively through the State run stores. Yes, it is very cheap, and yes they do sell a *lot* to "out-of-staters. There are mega-size liquor supermarkets located at both the northbound and southbound "Safety Rest Areas" at the state lines on each of the major N-S interstates. In case you didn't know, affluent southern New Englanders (from Mass, CT, RI) and New Yorkers must pass through a corner of New Hampshire to get to Vacationland (Maine). We offer them some refreshments on the way up to take on their vacations, and then of course allow them to take some back home with them. > > >>...and they put them on sale now and then too. > > > Did I mention lately that you suck?

I'd rather not discuss it here (for obvious reasons). "Field Guy" is close enough... -Fred W
