... because it's cheaper to pay for them to go to an existing school than build an entire school for such a low population?

Anyone want to build us a high school for less than 20 students in each grade?

From the state's point of view they probably don't want to incentivize an influx of cheap labor to be exploited by business owners that don't pay a living wage, and end up taking more in government services than the state is prepared for. Instead,. Of course, they want high paid workers who will pay more state taxes.

Shouldn't the market demand these Vermont craft goods already if that's a viable path for economic growth? The state incentivizing it won't create more demand. If the demand isn't there I'm not sure what creating more supply will do.

I applied a few days after the program started up again last year, to hold my place in line. I sent in "I've moved" paperwork the day I got my first VT paycheck and was paid with a check a few weeks later. Very fast, imo.

I think the problem with a lot of these conversation is that Vermont does not exist in a vacuum. If wealth is built faster outside of Vermont than people who stay here will continue to fall behind.

What sort of new exports from the state?
If you think about it a program like this for remote workers is exporting knowledge work.

>Wage for the position equals or exceeds the Vermont livable wage rate. Currently the livable wage rate is $15.33 per hour.
That's... not that much.

They've said they have more application in queue than funds to pay out. Weeks/months ago.

Yes. So why complain about SpaceX when we've failed to deliver for our own residents?

We take our toddler to library story-times and public play gyms; I hope she's socialized enough before kindergarten.

Probably because we can't install f-ing broadband throughout the state so it's one of the only viable options for internet.

Honestly looks like a really good school, with opportunities for clubs and sports that a local school wouldn't even have the population to support.
