And just why is this state in such a mess?
Summer visitors are staying away and there has been a drop-off in demand from restaurants and overseas markets that buy seafood.
-- And just why is this state in such a mess? --
Democrat Governor Janet Mills has imposed a 14 day quarantine on people arriving from out of the state. The usual outdoors tourist activites are orded closed to out-of-staters. "Vactionaland" is now just for us natives!
And the natives are some kind of unhappy with all of this nonsense from the governor. About 80 dead by the WuFlu. An average influenza season takes 250.
The economy crashed, 20% are unemployed, and state tax revenues are way down would be my guess.
