The PAC's in Lake County all raised and spent money with one goal: to take money from the voters.
YOU HAVE TO LAUGH AT THE WILlOUGHBY HILLS LEVY'S PAC NAME: SAFETY FIRST.
BWA HAHAHAHAHA!
Safety first, that's really something.
That tax hike in Willoughby Hills was about safety?
So, if the levy didn't pass Willoughby Hills would have been unsafe?
NO.
The real effect of Willoughby Hills not getting that levy passed is this: police and fire force salaries and benefits would not have gotten raised as much coming up here in the next budget or so.... Bob Weger and some on City Council would have welched on their promise to unions to get them raises after taking a "freeze" last year.
Safety first. Yeah right.
It's never about your safety. It's about raising revenue so public employees can get more money (i.e. pay, bennies, etc.). It's about deals cut by mayors and city council (or, trustees and the like).
It's not about your safety.

Not all pac's spent money to increase taxes. Care Committee out in our neighborhood spent money to fight a levy as they have done a number of times over the past 5 years.
ReplyDeletePoint well taken. Thanks for the info. I think you will agree though that almost all PACs raise money in order to force an issue on us or separate us from more of our money.
