Interesting idea. I’m not familiar with the State of Jefferson movement. I need to read up. And yes to the taxes here. And they really screw with punishing billing tiers on the utilities. It’s a nightmare living here when it comes to taxes and getting nailed EVERYWHERE justified by trying to “control our use.”
I have a bachelors in economics; I needed an elective so one summer I strayed into an anthropology class. Have to say it was an interesting class. I recall a comment made by the prof that has stayed with me all these years. She said “all borders are temporary”. I took this class about 1969 I believe. Her comment was and is accurate.
