It is hard for me to approve something that my Great, Great, Great, Great Grand Children will still be paying for.

300+ billion to bail out mismanaged union pension plans and matching funds for politicians I probably don't support paid for with my tax money makes me livid. These are just two of many examples of waste in this travesty of legislation

Too expensive, not that the $1,400 isn't nice, but for what he spent on other countries and cities that don't deserve it cuz they let other people destroy, this is costing us taxpayers way too much money, plus there's a lot of people I know that still working. Democrats are screwed up our country

It is full of garbage spending that could not get approved on it's own. Non pandemic spending is rife in this bill that does nothing but devalue our currency.

No ,why should we pay for something that has nothing to do with the Covid relief !! They can always get another bill in the next 5 years . I believe people need to be able to vote where their money is going .Congress is spending so much money that we will belong to China soon .

Because we’re too dependent on the government as a society. Jobs are everywhere and people are getting paid more to sit at home. A lot of Americans feel they are “above” most general labor jobs and out government supports them in turning it over because they have 100k illegal aliens per week now

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.
