Hey RunnerDave...how did the elections go?
Pretty much as expected here, no surprises. Local school levy to fix up the high school stadium was shot down pretty hard. Glad I send my kids out of the district. How's about you?
Welll we have a new $20 million High school stadium I will be happy to split my share of the cost with you.
Would've been a pretty good deal for the city, at about $30 a year in taxes, but we have far too many old folks in the city that vote down everything that has to do with the schools, no matter what it is.
I can't really blame the old folks. they raised their kids, paid their taxes, and now that they are living on fixed incomes they are still expected to pay school taxes they have no need for. yet people living in codos or apartment complexes don't pay a thing. that landlord should be assessed a rate by unit and family, though that would increase rent and force more people into public assistance forcing the working man to pay more taxes. I agree that education suffers across the country but we can build nice sports facilities and cut out the 'arts' from the curriculum. with the republicans in office now you will see more handouts, buyouts, good old buddy deals, but you won't see your taxes go down or basic services improved upon.
rant over.
