Why the hell won't those rich bastards just shut up and take it?!?!!
How dare they try to hold onto their wealth?!?!! Don't they know there's a government maw to be fed?!?!! A maw with a monopoly on violence, I might add.
Mind you, the Vermont Secretary of State was kind enough to outline their options: "Absent an armed insurrection type of thing, there isn't anything a town can do to secede. A town is a construction of the state and exists at the pleasure of the Legislature."
Got that? You exist at the pleasure of your legislature. Now shut up and pay. Or take up arms. Your choice.
(Killington's current tax situation: three wolves and a lamb deciding what's for dinner.)
Of course, the other thought that comes to mind is that the state governed by Dr Dean has taxes high enough to get people talking about seceding.
