What about that duplex if Grafton for sub 100k?
Not decent.

Also, the free staters ruined Grafton. The feds are there now.

well, if its any consolation,
the maine tax allows you to wear red flannel (w/ the elmer fudd hat) all year without questions from the fashionista.....
don't forget the suspenders.
''ayuhhhh''
I need to get a red and black lumberjack, with a hat to match.



Also, I haven't shaved or got a haircut since I moved to Maine. I'm starting to look like I belong here.

This isn't rape.  You are acting like the ladies that were "raped" by the wikleaks founder.

Have you added your over all tax bill to include property, sales and income in Maine vs the property tax costs of NH?   Does is equal out? 
ME is more. I need to figure out how much I will get back from the state income tax. I didn't fill out a state w-4, so right now my employer is taking out the entire 8.5%. I have a crap load of exemptions.

Quote
Doesn't NH have a tax on savings as well as property?
There is a 5% tax on interest and dividend income.

ME is the highest taxed state in the nation.
What about NY and NJ?

According to the tax foundation, ME was 15 in 2008.

Quote
People tend to move there because they are rich and want to live in/near the ocean/mountains/lakes or because they want handouts from the government.

Rich people don't live in ME year round. They get summer homes here. There is a reason they call it the Vacationland State. Sounds like an opportunity to make money off of rich people to me.

I doubt many people move to ME for the government handouts, but many of the people here do have an entitlement mentality.

Quote
You moved there knowing it had the highest taxes in the nation after doing lots of research.
:roll:

Quote
You knew the voters in ME are just are the least pro-liberty voters, in general, in the US and are getting worse, on average, every year.  Many of the better voters are moving to NH and the tend has been happening for decades.
I don't vote, and I don't plan on running for anything, so I don't care about voters. People with pipe dreams care about that stuff.

Quote
No one moves to Maine for freedom but many people move to Maine because they are highly against freedom and want to reduce it.
Please provide some evidence to support this claim.

One thing I know... NH has some of the worst marijuana laws in the country.

As far as personal freedom goes, Maine is #2 according to your pal J.P. Sorens.

as long as you don't turn black, like the dude in the photo....it's all good....
also, i'm betting you have far more teeth than the avg. ME-er (they did, after all, invent the ''toothbrush''......anywhere else, it would have been named ''teethbrush'')
