What makes me mad in Floyd County is...
03/14/2008 10:33:30 PM
THE ONE THING THAT REALLY TICKS ME OFF IN FLOYD COUNTY, IS THE LOCAL POLITICAN'S, THAT WE SEND TO ATLANTA, AND BEHIND OUR BACK VOTE FOR WHAT THE LOBBIEST WANT NOT WHAT WE WANT. AND THE COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE LOCAL PAPER TO REPORT THEIR VOTE'S AND ACTION'S
BACK TO THE VERY PEOPLE WHO ELECTED THEM, SEEN IN THE ATLANTA PAPER, WHERE THEY VOTED
TO LET AUTO INSURANCE COMPANYS RAISE RATES WITH OUT FIRST CONTACTING INSURANCE
COMMISSINOR'S OFFICE, AND AS HE STATED THERE WAS NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM A ROOKIE,AND
DID NOT KNOW WHAT THEY WERE VOTING FOR. JUST GOE'S TO SHOW ONCE ELCTED IT'S ALL ABOUT
ONLY WHAT THEY CAN GET FOR THEM SELF'S, AND THE COMPLETE LACK OF ATTENTION OF NOT ONLY
THE LOCAL PAPER, BUT IT'S THE FAULT OF ALL OF THE LOCAL MEDIA'S NOT TO KEEP US INFORMED AS TO WHAT THEY ARE REALLY DOING TO US WHILE THEY ARE IN ATLANTA.

been away for a while, so i'm just getting caught up on thing's, i read with great interst the editoral's
in 2/28/08 and 2/29/08.in the paper stating the ROME NEWS-TRIBUNE'S STANCE on just how wrong
it is not to SCHOOL TAXES FOR T.A.D.'S. AND HOW MUCH TAXES MIGHT BE CREATED IN THE FUTURE.
so really the way i understand this it's o.k. to take money from children's edication right now,but with
the promice that in the future, children will be better off,because of the MONEY THE RICH JUST MIGHT
PAY IN TAXES. I THOUGHT THE G.A. SURPREME COURT HAS ALREADY SAID NO LOCAL GOVERMENT'S
CANNOT DO THIS? WHY MUST THE TAX PAYERS OF THE STATE OF G.A. PAY FOR THE IDEA'S OF
DEVELOPER'S, IF THEY DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO DO IT, WITH OUT TAX MONEY, THEN IT SHOULD
NOT BE DONE.

as a new member i just want to say that yes DOGWOOD i did notice that little article about where only
school taxes can be used for school purposes only,not T.A.D.'S, and i agree with you,if the ledbetter
family, and david doss or any one else want's to use public money for their own use, then the very
least they could do is after the project is completed, it should become public domain property, and
the tax-payers should bo the only one's to profit from the project.not mr.doss or the ledbetter family,
or any one else, including the city commissinor's.from doing business behind closed door's.
the city attorney must really be great at his job to even think that he know's more about the ruling
that the g.a. surpreme court judges handed down,about the use of school taxes,again DOGWOOD
you are right. and you know what i just hope the city's attorney get's the chace to prove that he is
right in front of these very same judges, that their ruling only affects atlanta, thought the state of g.a.
included rome but i guess not?
