  1. So, you would rather elect a candidate, Hallquist, who has not given voters any financial information for all her proposals? She said that there would be no tax increases or new taxes for Medicare for All, for free College Tuition, for free anything. No taxes. Where does the money come from to pay for it all? She answers most questions with the fiber optic wires she wants installed in Vermont. Really? Is that what Vermonters are most concerned about? And you would want someone like this, in the State House as Governor? Someone who will not tell you the truth – that taxes will rise quickly and alot, there will be a carbon tax too, and that pennies fall from heaven to pay for it all? No, my vote is for Phil Scott for Governor!

    1. “Someone who will not tell you the truth(?)”

      Isn’t that the whole point to the Phil Scott quiz? His campaign doesn’t represent his record truthfully.

      Hallquist hasn’t said “no taxes.” She acknowledges it will take a lot more than a stump speech to pay for systemic changes that will benefit all Vermonters into the future.

      Working out appropriate funding mechanisms is not really the governor’s job unless she or he happens to be running as an economist. The governor’s job is to shape a vision to which cabinet members, legislators, financial authorities and even the public at large may contribute their attention and relevant expertise. That is the only way we ever move forward.

      1. Sue, I believe that toward the end of one televised debate, Hallquist said “no taxes”. Well, it has to be paid, so where does it all come from? How much? Which taxes will be increased? New taxes???
