Is Roger vs Kate basically a referendum on the junction development? Is that all this really comes down to?
I’m sticking with Kate. |

Basically yes though the Roger! supporters would like
you to think otherwise. |

| It’s all about the co-op in all things and all ways and the Listserv is like West Side Story with Seth Grimes as Officer Krupke. |

| It’s also about out of control taxes, which is saying something. Roger’s got my vote. I want all incumbents out. |

Taxes pay for our society. If you don’t like taxes, check out Somalia. Extremely low effective tax rates there! Of course, no society either. |

And why does it need all of those things? Seems pretty pricey. Doesn’t MoCo government already have its own pretty healthy bureaucracy without layering on more at the local level? |

More local control. |

I love the TP city services. I also love that it feels like its own small town. |

Takoma Park has been an incorporated municipality since 1890. If you think that it should de-incorporate, then you should move to Takoma Park and start advocating for that. |

What, pray tell, does "annaxed" mean?
