Well, there are laws yet to be passed.

One thing that really struck me when I was stationed at Otis AFB...

Every single road construction site, even something as simple as a telephone pole replacement, had to have a rent-a-cop assigned to it. What a waste of cash and policemen! I’m sure the cops love the overtime! In every other state I’ve been to, the traffic keeping role was assigned to a member of the crew who has a Stop/Slow sign.

But I’m still tempted to think that those Mass people will eventually want some service that is going to need serious money and the New Hampshire government won’t be able to provide it without raising more revenue.

As a contractor in the Northeast I can assure you that those cops are not free. The contractor pays for them, and the public pays for them on their utility bill.
