Persuading people to come here from Florida. For vacation, only, of
course. Vermonters go to Florida ... for the agreeable weather and those lovely tax advantages.

Quotes
- "If, from the more wretched parts of the old world, we look at those which are in an advanced stage of improvement, we still find the greedy hand of government thrusting itself into every corner and crevice of industry, and grasping the spoil of the multitude. Invention is continually exercised, to furnish new pretenses for revenues and taxation. It watches prosperity as its prey and permits none to escape without tribute." -- Thomas Paine (Rights of Man, 1791)

From the article: 'More residents from Florida make visits to Vermont than from any other non-Northeast state, with the exception of Texas.'
So wouldn't it make more sense to advertise in Texas? Maybe they are afraid Texans might stay long enough to vote. As a Texan told a friend of mine both Texas and Vermont were independent republics only Texas hasn't forgotten. Oh and Texas had a 10 billion state tax surplus this year.
