Joel, I must be slipping! I'll do better soon and complain about the growth of spending, but for now I am shocked at Governor Dayton's proposal to tax snowbirds. He may be wealthy, but he isn't very bright.
Snowbirds are summer visitors with state residency elsewhere. Does he seek to destroy tourism? People come to Minnesota for the summer and leave lots of money. It would be darn easy to enjoy Wisconsin, northern Michigan, Montana or any number of other places for two, three or four months.
He clearly hasn't bothered to ask northern Minnesota business people how they would do without the snowbird influx every summer.
