The State, Of The State Of Vermont

So here we are, by all accounts the U.S. has been in a recession for a year, and Vermont's fully beginning to feel the pinch. Just recently Newport, which has the highest unemployment rate in the state, lost another 50+ jobs. With budget shortfalls on the horizon things don't bode well for the Green Mountain State.

And the politicians say cut jobs, and raise taxes.

Slash spending to social programs, and use the rainy day fund.

Doesn't seem to me to be the subscription to put the green back in the mountains of Vermont!
