VT is the third most expensive state to live in, prepare to adjust expectations.

Fiscally conservative just means he clutches his pearls at the thought of helping poor people and minorities. It’s not a good thing.

Getting rid of Scott is certainly another possibility, too bad he got re-elected :/

Just don’t. Vermonters can’t even buy VT homes. Go to New Hampshire.

Rich people gotta go or play along. Make snow birds claim their main residency as VT to avoid getting slapped with a large tax (which would help fund public housing projects). Ban huge companies that are hoarding properties from operating in VT unless the business identifies VT as the state that they’re based out of. Tax the energy companies that spike the price of oil/gas in the winter. Create more public transport (buses, trains, and even sidewalks) so Vermonters don’t need to rely on a car. We have possibilities.

Reply to comment by reverievt in Vermont stone house list or database by Puzzled_Extent2169
Exactly, like if you’re interested in stone house architecture go to a museum or something. Vermonters also are becoming more militant towards leaf peeper types because they’re sick and tired of being disregarded and disrespectful by the people wanting nothing but pictures of their homes and yards.

Vermont’s not a museum you can traipse through, people lives in them and deserve privacy. Visiting public stone buildings is a different story, but just stop it otherwise.

Reply to Fine people of VT please settle a household debate for me: should an opened bottle of maple syrup be stored in the refrigerator or cupboard? by Kashmir79
It should be stored in the most accessible spot. Therefore you won’t have to worry about it expiring because it’ll been consumed too quickly haha

Yeah, I’m not trying to bully you away, I just see a lot of people get tricked by VT on Instagram and it’s frustrating for everyone. It’s a great and hard place to live

Because they’re too poor move duh. It’s why we have such empty food shelf centers and people on this sub constantly looking for cheaper fuel. Everything’s getting more expensive and the people that afford to live here are buy homes and live elsewhere 10/12s of the year.

You shouldn’t move here if you’re expecting to thrive on a teachers salary in VT (excluding higher ed). We’ve all been making sacrifices here, but I wish you luck finding a good job.

Reply to Consumer Reports says BJ's and Target's brand maple syrup tastes better than Vermont Maple syrup. What say you? by CalicoFlannel
This is trash just like most things from huge box stores. They’re always trying to price out the lil guy, and buy reviews and studies is nothing new to corporations (look at Mars and the chocolate studies they funded)

Maybe make a new sub for Covid colonists where you can all wonder together. Sounds like a subject that not a lot would like to see constantly
