To the voters of Bristol, Lincoln, Monkton and Starksboro:
It’s time for a change. We cannot afford to continue to raise state spending at a rate higher than the economic growth rate of Vermont. Of course we can continue to raise taxes. But that option ends at some point.
Both Fred Baser and Valerie Mullin are successful entrepreneurs and businesspeople. They know economics and they can, hopefully, help our Legislature get back onto a sustainable track. Let’s give them a chance.
Jim Peabody Sr.
Bristol
