Seacoast Online – Residents take shots at ‘NH advantage’
The income and sales tax advocates are at it again. We strongly suggest they read the Yankee Institute’s study “15 Years of Folly” which is available on this blog under Documents to find out why a sales and income tax will NOT lower property taxes and never has.
HAMPTON — Residents took shots at the “New Hampshire advantage” and discussed possible approaches to creating a system that lowers local property taxes Thursday at a forum hosted by the Hampton Democratic Committee.
The forum, “Property Tax Relief: Is It Time For Tax Reform In New Hampshire?” was held at Hobbs House on Lafayette Road.
Forum participants were Richard England, Robert Mohr and Neil Niman, professors of economics at the University of New Hampshire. They were joined by Alexander Lee and Mark Fernald of the Granite State Fair Tax Coalition.
