Vote NOOOOOOO on May 8

From the Smithfield Herald site:

Smithfield — If you plan to vote on the three upcoming bond issues for public schools, Johnston Community College and countywide recreation projects, then circle May 8 on your calendar.

On Monday, County Commissioners set the referendum date and urged supporters to tell neighbors and friends to "vote thrice."


I will vote thrice...just NAY each time. Enough is enough. If charter schools can run fine without funding for facilities, so can the government run schools. When our school systems use the money we give them to the utmost efficiency, then I will consider it.

A bond issue for recreation facilities is just wrong, in my opinion. When we have sufficient revenue to start paying for such things out of a normal budget without borrowing heavily for it, then we can consider dumping more cash into P&R. Until then, stop raping the tax payers for a "good idea". Not every good idea should be done.

You just keep giving me reasons to be glad I don't live in J County,(although parts of Wake are worse in other ways)
