As for me, I will make a conscious effort to shop outside Durango city limits to divert sales-tax revenue to those who deserve it and to punish workers who voted for these leftists. Think of the environmental impact of more people driving to Farmington.

I am beginning construction of a new home in Pagosa (my 100th), and have told subcontractors not one dime of Durango-purchased materials is allowed on my project. I’ll purchase nothing that yields sales-tax revenue for Durango, including architectural services.

Please join with me and commit to purchase as much as possible outside of Durango’s city limits and save the sales tax.
