Reply to comment by DontBeEvil1 in So who are we voting for that is not going rip us off blind w nonstop tax increases? by Accomplished_Day2991
No, I did not. When someone shows you who they are believe them. Fact: when given the opportunity, Alexander Hamilton voted against the outrageous tax increase and the other candidate voted for the outrageous tax increase. He showed an interest in fiscal accountability and the other candidate did not. They are no longer on the same slate which implies they have different views. One for fiscal accountability and one for profligate spending. This implies that if he is voted back in, he wouldn’t rubber stamp the tax increase and the other candidate will. No one can predict the future but people’s past actions are a good proxy for their future actions.

AGAIN, nothing you said is relevant to my point. Not sure why you keep repeating it. It's just dumb to vote exclusively for a slate because you like what 1 person on it did and equally dumb to disregard everyone on another slate because you don't like what 1 of them did, and it's also dumb to say everyone on a slate is guilty by association, when the person you don't like was voted in on the slate that you currently like. By your rationale, you shouldn't like Alexander Hamilton or anyone else on his slate since the one you don't like was on Hamilton's slate too. It's also dumb to ignore that individuals on the slate you hate, are also concerned with reducing the tax burden on residents. Personally, I'm not satisfied with the totality of any slate that's running, and will be choosing individual candidates from the totality.

This isn’t about you. You can make your own decisions. This is about everyone else who reads this. Alexander wouldn’t be able to bring about fiscal accountability if his entire slate is not voted in. His ideas will consistently be voted down. He will be powerless just like he was with the 2022 budget. The choice is simple. If the people believe in fiscal accountability, they will support his entire slate. If not, get ready for 2 more years of profligate spending.

Really? Wow, I thought it was all about me. Thanks for letting me know! Now, I can stop reading your nonsense. 🌟
Bonus point: it's also not about your taxes. 🤷

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink. Thankfully, the majority have common sense and will make their voices heard loud and clear in a few days.

I didn't read whatever you wrote... because...well, I previously told you I was happy you let me know I didn't have to. 🤷
