It's Ironic because the incentive was to bring young people to Vermont but now we have a lot of "younger" people that have moved here but they are working remote for non-Vermont based companies. Now people are upset because everything is so short-staffed here, but where was the incentive to get the people running the state to stay? Now they can't afford homes, their pay hasn't increased in years and the cost of living is ridiculous, the people that are working for local places are working 2+ jobs, it's just not sustainable.

So ultimately the whole remote incentive plan kind of backfired.
