Showing once again it fails to understand the economy, the democratian supports every tax and increase in sight... while a bill is being run to reduce it's own taxes.

As is their usual habit, the democratian, which won't have to pay most of these taxes, urges those of us who have been forced, in part through their efforts, to open our wallets, to punish opurselves even further by voluntarily doing that which they won't do: pay more or even the same level of taxes.

Meanwhile, the democratian says nothing about a bill that's been introduced in the senate to reduce THEIR taxes.

In the past, the democratian has been RABIDLY willing to spend other's money.  They still don't understand their duty in this situation:

If the democratian thinks spending our money on an issue is such a great idea.... well, shouldn't they be spending their money on those same issues as well?

The problem?

Many of us are in a recession.  Many of us find it increasingly difficult to make ends meet.  Many of us are paying more for everything.

I will be voting "no" on the Hockinson levy because they received this years ration of dollars for our kid even though our child went to Clark in Running Start... and wasn't setting foot in the school.

ALL of our costs go up.  But not our incomes.  And our local rag is standing there yelling at us to give more, and more and more and more.

So... no.  I'm done.  And I apologize to the school district in advance, but I just can't afford it or any other tax increase.... or to continue to pay any tax I can legally avoid as the value of my home plummets but not the amount of money we're required to pay... that seems to constantly be going up... with our local rag, benefiting from it's own tax DEcrease, cheerleading our ongoing or increasing costs every step of the way.

Sorry.
