Happy Dance
Feb. 8th, 2011 09:53 pmHappy Dance and... whew!
For various and sundry reasons I'm thrilled and relieved that this county school tax went through. A group of Tea Partiers had it in their cites with tirades, articles, protest groups, and "No More Taxes" ignorant B.S. signs posted everywhere (hey, people, we actually have to pay for our school systems, you know? A good school system is also important to our property values! We have a good school system. It's why it's a desirable place to live in the area. And our property taxes have just gone down because everyone's home prices have just been adjusted down because of the economy)
Luckily it passed by 63%. This will make me sleep better tonight (and work much happier tomorrow. The tea baggers have been real assholes about it. I guess they don't mind overcrowded classrooms and leaking roofs...}
