There have been several fire departments built in the surrounding towns that are huge and super fancy. Crazy fancy stone work, crazy windows and the huge glass roll up doors. Then there is one in another town in the county that just built a nice, red iron station. Nothing fancy but does the job just fine.
Since tax money is paying for all this, why spend double to triple the money for the same thing? It seems like a huge waste just to make something pretty and fancy. Its not like red iron buildings are ugly. It seems like going out to dinner for your birthday with your friend, knowing they are going to buy yours and ordering the most expensive thing on the menu.
new public schools are billions over budget too
its not their money....who cares!
the general public keeps handing over more and more of it.....why stop?
bond after bond keeps passing easily
