The Governor's perfect State
Good day every one. I have noticed that since the election everyone has been very quiet. Has anyone looked at the governors new budget? Now Le Page is as smart as they come. Low income tax sounds great but here is what we get. An increase in property tax. Higher sales tax with an increase in items taxed. A tax on hospitals that will increase medical cost. There are undoubtedly other items he will use to make up for lost revenue. Maine has the oldest population in the country as well as many people with low incomes. In my opinion the governors end game is to drive out poor, the old who are not well to do or in other words, if you are not well to do, leave. Remember the comment I will buy them a one way ticket to Massachusetts. I guess the boy who grew up on the street and pulled himself up to the highest office in Maine should be commended for the accomplishment and maybe now doesnt want to remember how it was then. I think he wants a state made up of only the wealthy and well to do. Good luck governor, smarter men then you have tried to establish everything from the perfect race to the perfect society. To my knowledge all have failed.
