I have heard the feedback from folks on reducing our firemen, policemen and so forth, but I am skeptical. when I went through the CONA leadership course, I met with many of the city leaders and it sure seemed like we added a lot of chiefs instead of indians as the tax revenue base increased. I still see 4-5 guys changing light bulbs for the city.

Our schools are still terrible based on the tests, but yet the tax dollars aren't going to make parents get more involved with their kids lives and education. I am not one to throw money at a problem.

My only thing is that folks really look at the amendment details and make an educated decision, not an emotional.
