Well tis, you are safely in the majority on this one!
Let's see, for years the Republicans had a firm grip on the House, the Senate, the Executive Council & the Governor's Office.
And all attempts at implementing a sales or an income tax were soundly blocked.
Now we've had the opposing party, the Democrats, with a firm grip on the House, the Senate, the Executive Council and the Governor's Office.
And guess what?
All attempts at impelmenting a sales or an income tax have been soundly blocked.
And the answer is simple. Poll after poll, election after election the majority of the good folks of New Hampshire have clearly stated that as much as they may not like a property tax, they will not support elected officials that want to implement either a sales or income tax.
And very few things in politics are as simple as that!
