Never have. Why fight the morons when I can get the same crap while sitting in my recliner?

I'm saving that money for Utility bills and Gasoline. Thanks to Joe Brandon. I read where he had a nice Thanksgiving Dinner, while 160,000 military men and women are having trouble feeding their families. Go figure!

Why are 160,000 military people having trouble feeding their families?

Adam, you wouldn't have the stones to say that to those military folks, not even to the ladies.

And those same 160,000 people would be in the same boat if Trump was in office. Wait, he thinks he is, so is his fault???

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Most people already drive 75 MPH, at least. Trust the people.

A lot of people drive faster than the posted speed limit - 75 to 80 instead of 70. Increasing the speed limit will just push the actual travel rates higher - 80 to 85 instead of 75. With all of the heavy trucks on the road (some that drive slow), higher speeds are just dangerous.

Drivers are already driving 5 to 10 miles over the current limits so if it's increased I'm pretty sure they'll exceed the new limits.
