[QUOTE="jsantapau, post: 1367445, member: 99193"] Just a side note to agree with you in a different direction.. a couple of years ago the school board in my community wanted to build a new 30million dollar school in a borough that was already filled to itd borders. This is a district that had a graduating class of about 50 kids [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morrisville,_Bucks_County,_Pennsylvania#Demographics[/url] ... well going to the meetings and protesting was mostly retirees, I was one of the few "working poor" of course the retirees were concerned of how they where going to pay for this living on a fixed income.... I stood up to say my situation... when I first bought my house .. my mortgage(all included) was approximately 1.5 paychecks 12 years later my morgage was 2.5 weeks of paychecks .. now my loan did not go up, it was only the taxes that where raised and now I was actually paying more in taxes then the loan........ also at this time work was slowing down and I was down to 35 to 45 hours a week compared to the 60 I was trying to get........ So I explain all this saying you are going to force me out of my house with a school we don't need...... I was told by one of the board members that it sounded like I needed to get a 2nd job.... well luckily articulation was on my side at that moment...."You would really like that, so noone would have time to come to these meetings and keep an eye on you wouldn't you.Have you noticed that not too many people of the working class are here? That is because they are working or are sleeping trying to get rest so they can go to work so they can pay their taxes to help this community, as an elected payed official what are YOU doing to actually help?" well before I moved out of town the people of Morrisville actualy had to hire(out of our own pockets) an attorney to sue the school board ,I really haven't kept up too much since I moved but I know the school is not being built and there is a lot of shenanigans still being ironed out. it is for your own good for you to get involved to keep the politicians working for you,, they will lie to you to get elected,tax you to get payed, and if you don't constantly keep banging on their door they will sell your interests to the highest bidder to pad their wallet. I mean if you don't care they sure as heck won't [/QUOTE]
