92. Once you vote to tax a certain segment of people, you
Edited on Sat Apr-11-09 01:31 AM by laugle
have opened a big can of worms. IMO, it's just plain wrong.

Another example: People in my city who own a home were asked to vote to tax homeowners for fire one year, and education the next. Both passed. My city has reaped the rewards of enormous property tax revenue, due to home appreciation, and they squandered it. So now we are suppose to pay for an essential service and education. I won't even go into the fraudulent election. Now our city took a poll to see if they could tax us because they have a budget deficit. The people of my city are in revolt mode,so they have backed off.......until next time..........

ENOUGH WITH THE TAXES.......

BTW, my husband and I are both registered voter's yet only one of us was allowed to vote. The ballot did not go through the registrar, but came in the mail from the City, and said one vote per household. The second election they lost by 2 votes, and then guess what, they found some more votes and passed it.

This is happening all over my county!
