	Correction to "Pork, the new White House Meat" March 5, 2009 In the letter title "Pork, the new White House Meat", the writer suggests that "simple math" shows that giving 200 Million US taxpayers $1 Million would be cheaper than the $756 Billion stimulus package. Unfortunately, his math is wrong: 200,000,000 Taxpayers X $1,000,000 = $200,000,000,000,000. That's $200...
	Pork, the new White House Meat February 21, 2009 $756,000,000,000.00. (Just in case anyone was wondering what 756 Billion Dollars looks like.)

	What's Important? April 2, 2008 Over the past few years, there have been numerous school issues on the ballot, many which haven't been passed. One of the biggest arguments has been the increase of property taxes which would finance the issues for the schools or school improvements. As an educator, it is depressing to see how society has changed its focus from our schools to...
	Athletic Facilities March 11, 2008 Well the athletic facilities levy failed again and those that supported it now wonder what is next. Those that did not support it are undoubtedly basking in the fact that a majority of voters took their side. But stop to think a bit...
	When the Levy breaks..... November 21, 2007 In regards to our recent failed tax levies, I feel compelled to comment after reading a passionate father's disgust with the defeat of the athletic facility levy. I have never agreed with property taxes in general. It's simply fascinating " they found yet another way to poke a hole in our savings...
	CANDIDATE NOT INFORMED October 9, 2007 I watched the Cable 9 Q & A featuring the 2 candidates for Macedonia Mayor. One of the questions was, "How will you deal with storm water"? Mr. Pilato first stated that the city has expended $340,000 and has gotten...
