It's cheaper for resorts in the long run since US wages don't match US inflation and cost of living expenses. This is obviously lost on our lords and ladies in Montpelier. If you wonder why the cost of services keeps going up, it isn't so your contractor, waitress, or nurse can keep up with expenses. They're saving up enough money to leave the state.
