Just listen to Travis, a Harwood alum and Moretown resident who rushed from work to a public meeting so he could tell whoever would listen, I don't live here. I survive here. He's had enough. His taxes and his homeowner's insurance has doubled. His hands at that very moment were bleeding from the 14 hour day. He just worked a schedule that's crushing him. He said, I'm sick of all this ridiculous spending and the cost of everything doubling every year. (12:20–12:24)
