Do You Think It’s Fair For A State To Take A Cities Money?

If a state becomes broke what happens? Increase taxes? I OWE YOU’s!

It seems to just keep getting worse… they take away necessities… they add taxes… it never goes away! How much of this mess is due to you and me? What could have been prevented? What is/was greed or bad planning? What is strictly politics? Was it all about the money? It is still about the money, but no one wants to use their own money!

Did you know that for every town/city in certain states that the state government can come into that city’s budget and take huge amounts to cover their own deficiencies?! For example, they can take 3 million from parking revenue just because they want it or need it!

How can they do this? As said previously… it’s not our fault the state is broke. Is it the towns/cities fault the state is broke? Why should the cities suffer cutbacks?

Do you think this is fair? What should be done? How can we prevent loss of our everyday necessities as a community?
