The Concord Monitor notices ITEP's study and the reality it exposed about our pledge politics:
Poorer people pay more in New Hampshire.
...According to the study, New Hampshire families earning less than $25,000 pay 8.3 percent of their income in state and local taxes.
...The top 1 percent of earners, making more than $480,000, pay 2 percent.
It's hard to add meaningful commentary to those numbers. They speak (scream?) for themselves.
