People that live in MA and own property in NH are not paying and more in taxes then NH residents.

We're not paying any less, either. Our taxes send your kids to school. We get nothing in the deal. But we're Massholes.

The overwhelming majority of MA residents don't pay property taxes in NH. It's intellectually dishonest to say "Our taxes pay to send your kids to school" when you are paying a completely voluntary tax for whatever recreational or investment purposes you might have.

I work in MA and pay income tax. I can't vote in MA (legally) I have no say as to where that money goes and I can't just up and quit because I don't feel like paying a tax. I don't have property there that is being defended, I get no benefit from those tax dollar whatsoever.

People that live in NH and work in MA pay more in tax dollars then people that live in MA and play in NH.
