That's where Killington is wrong.   NH does have such a law.   I know because 
I live in a doner town.   We pay a large share of the education funding for 
the state and get a very small portion of that back for our local schools.   
Most of the homes in my town are vacation cottages owned by people from Mass.   
The owners are supporting the schools throughout the state but cannot send 
their own children to these schools.
