Unless the State of Maine goes in the economic tank. Don’t buy lobsters, don’t go there on vacation.
Unlike some of the large Blue Zone states, Maine is vulnerable to economic sanctions. Slight declines can have a very large effect.
“Unless the State of Maine goes in the economic tank.”
Maine has been in the economic tank, comparatively speaking, since 1929, bert, and most Mainers would be happiest if the “touristers” “from away” would in fact stay away.
“Dont buy lobsters”. The price went down to about $3.20 lb at Christmas time; tough on the fishermen but just great for everyone else.
“Slight declines can have a very large effect.”
“Unlike some of the large Blue Zone states, Maine is vulnerable to economic sanctions.”
Maine is a small place. If it got out, and it would, that right wingers from away were organizing an economic boycott of the state because of Snowe and Collins, those Republican leadership clowns in DC could permanently forget the votes of either of the Senators.
And bert, in Maine slight declines, like slight improvements, have no effect.
