How many people would be out of a job?

DUMMERSTON — RE: “Can we join forces with New Hampshire?” [Letters, March 20]:

Vermont should not be outsourcing jobs. For heaven's sake, Mike Ball - do you realize how many people would be out of a job if the state closed the police academy, not to mention the fire academy and state EMS offices?

It is the governor's plan to create jobs. A move such as you suggest just adds fuel to Vermont's unemployment problem.

Come on! Vermont does not need to close any business. Vermont needs to stop fighting business, industry, and growth.
