Now the real challenge will be the very real threat of tax refugees from

I have failed in many of my efforts to keep New Hampshire New Hampshire,

tax refugees; they tend to move to Burlington, VT. Probably they are
thinking: “That worked out nicely for Bernie.”)
Anyway Texas, en garde and good luck!
