Could be that Easy’s point is that outsiders have become insiders, so to speak. Happening all over VT as newbies come in, judge VT to be inadequate compared to what they had elsewhere, change things & price out many of the older VTer & even their kids…neither understand nor respect the efforts & culture of those who have lived here before them, & certainly don’t respect the quality of the rural life & environment here, or the natives & long-timers they coexist with. It’s not just VT either, it’s everywhere. Talk to a rural Florida native (a friend of mine who settled here a few years ago) about what happened to her father’s farm and the family’s small town. Or a local in NH (and another, a former student of mine living on disability allowance in a nearby Vt town) just thrown out of their apt. bc the building’s been bought by someone who want to “remodel” & sell/rent to ppl who can pay lots more. Or a dairy farmer in central VT whose income has diminished so quickly that improvements and diversification are unaffordable and the herd must be sold. And many more, all across the nation.
