In reference to the  permanent tax clause in the school funding issue, Is there any reason the public could
not do the same as was done by the  Middletown anti-ward contingent? They pulled a petition, gathered  the  number of signatures required to put the issue on the ballot (even though it was dis-qualified and then qualified again???) and had success in changing the local political landscape. Why would that option not
be possible with the proposed school funding amendment?]]> Tue, 04 May 2010 10:02:31 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2944&PID=18647&title=school-fair-tax#18647 School Fair tax? : well Sawan, someonewill ask you... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2944&PID=18646&title=school-fair-tax#18646 Author: Bill

To answer the above....if I were a politician, BOE member, I would reply by saying that by having everyone pay the tax it benefits everyone by having these students someday owning a business, being a political leader, or just over-all contributing to the community upon graduation.
 
Now...being a father of grown children I would be all for not paying anymore into the school system. But to keep it all on an even till everyone pays. ]]> Tue, 04 May 2010 08:25:15 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2944&PID=18643&title=school-fair-tax#18643
