Even more broadly:   Income tax is even more expansive than IT tax.  Not just IT jobs that are affected by income tax.  Or property tax.  Or sales tax.

Personally, I accept it as the run rises.  People are pushed to purchase from NH in general, and liquor outlet in particular.  IT isn't the only industry that gets taxed.
