I don't cancel plans based on stupidity, false narratives and non-science based opinions of the media.

Absolutely not. COVID had not proved to be some horrible all killing virus.

Tell that to the 800K dead Americans, or the many, many thousands with Long Covid, the debilitating disease ppl have after "recovery" from C-19. But, hey, the ones dying now from it are JUST the unvaxxed ones, so keep dying. We won't, and we vote.😉😉

Not a chance in the world of that happening. Business as usual.

This pandemic is getting worse because you stupid morons keep making this a political issue. It's a human issue. If everyone would get vaccinated, we could get back to normal.

Don't bother them with details and facts. Besides, the only ones dying now are the unvaxxed, and they can't vote when they're dead. That gives us an advantage, LOL! Want a laugh/cry, check out the site Sorryantivaxxers! There's tons (literally) of the exact same kind of folks that are dead, now.

It’s a cold, watch out in January they will bring you Omega...to a theatre near you(TV, CNN, MSM) it’s going to be deadly, even when that is against the science of virology...f Fraudci. He’s soooo lame. Look up what his thesis was, masks and bacterial pneumonia...from the Spanish Flu. Sheeple, stop!

Fraudci works for the DNC and big pharma. He is doing whatever they tell him to do, when he is not busy killing puppies.

No, C-19 is not a cold. It's a virus. Colds are also viruses, but all viruses are not colds. Where did you get your virology degree from? Facebook U? YouTube U? FOX U? Get your money back, because it's trash. Try actual books, from actual scientists that study this, instead of media. 🙄

I no longer make NYE plans, since my soon-to-be ex-husband of 39 years suddenly dumped me like yesterday's trash, with no warning. I've no one to celebrate with, so why celebrate? All it means is one more new year of being alone, with about 2½ dozen more to go before I die alone. What's the point?

You mean like the 850K that can't enjoy anything any more, because they're DEAD from C-19? Or maybe you mean the many more with Long Covid, after "recovery" from C-19? The only ones dying now are just like you. Keep at it, because we vote, and dead ppl's votes don't count - no matter YOUR claims. 😄

I believe with all my heart that Columbia residents should donate their entire paychecks to the City. If the City had ALL of the money, it would solve ALL of the problems.

They want to raise taxes because the “sales taxes are less than expected”. Could this be due to Columbia’s citizens not shopping downtown, etc. as they do not. Want to deal with addicts, vagrants and panhandlers. Lower revenues are due to administrators poor policies and other choices ie..plan fine

Get rid of the unnecessary positions created the past 3 years! The answer is to reduce the size of government, NOT raise taxes! Columbia's sales tax rate is already too high. Continue letting crime and homelessness flourish, raise taxes, and people will leave the city,

Why not cut the city official salaries by a few thousand dollars each to help make up some of the money that the city is looking for? But I doubt a single city official would be willing to do that even though most of them live better than the rest of the city.

The recorder of deeds salary alone is over $96,000!!!!!!!!!!!! TRULY INSANE. Most of us can never even imagine that amount of money.

If you are alive, there is no such thing as too many taxes. EVEN when you are unalive, you are taxed.
