Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 12 ratings
  • Too politically left leaning

    I listen to the weekly news update to get a fair and balanced understanding of NH news. Unfortunately I feel that the host’s and guest’s left leaning opinions are abundantly clear. I like this podcast but I wish the reporting was more balanced.

Q: What would the BET filing threshold change mean for businesses and state revenue?
The BET was set to raise the filing threshold from $297,000 to $400,000, reducing the number of businesses subject to the tax, while a concurrent trigger mechanism could still lower the BET rate if revenue targets are exceeded, aiming to balance tax relief with maintaining state revenue and rainy-day reserves.
