A Vermont for Vermonters is just as racist as Bajor for Bajorans.

Services for residents now racist

I don't think you see how problematic it is to not provide services to climate refugees, or out of state folk. Need the out-of-state money so desperately, we must do everything we can to get more tourism dollars!

I have no issues with helping other people, but making life harder on the people they represent in favor of people that have money is not a great government

Not my fault these people lived in a state prone to the worst of climate change and now they’re forced to move. Tough luck.

I am not racist. When I say Vermonter, I am referring to people who live here as opposed to part-timers, weekenders, and Air B and B owners. Some of my favorite Vermonters are brand new Americans!
