Democrats Spend Too Much Money
RECEIVED Mon., Oct. 15, 2012
Dear Editor,
Re: "Med School Campaign Goes High-Speed" [News, Oct. 12]: Just for the record, I consider myself an Independent voter. But I couldn't help but notice how many Democratic groups are supporting Proposition 1. I would just like to thank them all from the bottom of my wallet for supporting this proposition. I would like to thank them all for wanting to raise my taxes. This is what you seem to do best. Thank you, Democrats, for making this already expensive town an even more expensive one in which to live. Funny, but the day this article came out, I went to my mailbox and found a flier which states that 15,000 jobs would be created by the passing of this proposition. Oh, really? Probably some of these new employees might even be able to purchase a home here – that is, if they can afford the new taxes, along with all the old taxes. I have a slogan for all those proponents of Proposition 1: Ad valorem increase … ad infinitum. Is this really the only way to fund (what seems to me) a huge make-work project? Oh, you can bet I'll be going all the way down the ballot looking for this one! Looking to cancel out Sen. Kirk Watson's vote.
