Spending

“We don't have a trillion-dollar debt because we haven't taxed enough; we have a trillion-dollar debt because we spend too much”, Ronald Reagan

Again - Where do I start?

The Tahoma school tax levy failed (excellent!). But they won't give up. The good news is (maybe) they'll go back and adjust their tax levy to just what they need and not what they want!

In other news, the Navy officially sanctions gay marriage (contrary to the law) but they figure what better way to increase enlistment.

And in Thurston County the "pocket gopher" has more rights than property owners. Over 57,000 property owners have been forced to give up their rights so that gophers don't become endangered. I probably shouldn't let them know that I'm going to another state this month to help rid them of their rodent population. Funny thing is (not so funny for the property owners) that the gophers have no problem finding new places to live when they are "forced" off of "their" land.
