This is the truth .. I have no need to cut an additional check to the Governor or am I in need of any tax amnesty. I pay all taxes owed whether it be income or sales. I send in a good amount in the form of the "use" tax when I file my income tax return. The use tax is the difference in percentage between any sales tax I pay in another state and Maine's. My vehicle is registered in Maine. There are many people who register their vehicles in NH to avoid paying taxes in Maine. I had a neighbor once I didn't get along with at all. They were renters and had their vehicles registered in NH for years. I didn't like them so I turned them in ... they moved soon after and that is all I have to say about that...
There is always someone trying to skirt the system. My brother In-law had a bottle redemp for his convenience store and a number of times, he or his staff , caught customers trying to redeem NH cans (mixed) with the rest of the legit ones,this became so frequent that he had to start refusing to take counted bags.Leading him to hire more sorters. Eventually, he gave up the whole thing and now only accepts empties that you purchased from his store.
Somebody always ends up paying for the negligence of others. In this case it cost two guy's their jobs.:sad:
