[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you live in MoCo, and you've voted for these same politicians for decades, don't be surprised when they raise your taxes yet again. This "final straw" stuff is nonsense, unless you have actively opposed those in office by voting for fiscally responsible people.[/quote] I wish we had 2 party representation in MoCo. [/quote] There are fiscally conservative Democrats. You just don't vote for them. [/quote] You are probably right. I wish there were more press for local races. I don't mind voting democrat and local races are what impact us the most. BTW, even tough I am a R, I don't mind tax raises if I didn't think the money was being wasted away on useless things. [/quote] Yes, I agree the press coverage is horrible. I've watched it decline significantly over the past 10 years. I can understand why people outside of government don't really get what's going on. But it's just so frustrating. The Montgomery County Taxpayers League is pretty good with information. They are a little conservative for me, but they stay up on County politics. Follow their site and you can find out about public hearings, meetings with government officials, etc. http://www.mctaxpayersleague.org/about[/quote]
