And property taxes should be even higher for people who don’t live here.

They’re already too high for average Vermonters to own real estate…jay peak and killington are the second and third largest employers in the state..when I worked at killington I never could have afforded to pay for a house…

That's why as a state we need to move towards industry thats not tourism. Tourism pays like shit.

With act 250 there will never be any new industry…vermont will always be very dependent on tourism…as I said I grew up in killington…very glad I got out of vermont..love to go visit but it has very little opportunity…you should be happy you’re a programmer or whatever..just go buy a house when the market reboots..
