i keep hearing how the state is getting involved in maple..i wish they wouldn,t..it,ll be just one more thing they screwup...it,s all push,push tap,tap,tap..make more syrup..well,wheres the other end..markets,markets,markets and more markets for all that syrup..i hear nothing about getting more markets for all that syrup.
i,am a logger and i love the woods..it makes me sick to see trashed woods like on stateland...if they want more tax money they could let me take one week,my tractor and chainsaw and i,de give them a weeks worth of timber profit as my yearly taXES..i,de be cleaning up there mess,making the wood better and giving more to them then my noral yearly taxes.
