I thought Stoffa was fiscally responsible. Will Angle be voting to raise my taxes? I'll bet they float the double-digit idea and ultimately jam a 9% increase up our asses and tell us how great they are for saving us. They all need to go. Stoffa running unopposed is like giving car keys and liquor to a teenage boy. Get ready to pay NorCo taxpayers.

He also had the help of, "He is saving $10 million a year", uber apologist ohare. Facts are the County is broke.<br /><br />He is an incompetent lifetime bureaucrat who only knows how to spend tax money. Wait until the bill for his multi-million dollar Health Department comes due. Oh and his mult-million dollar prison, oh and his multi-million dollar parking deck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-45378999083995467572009-09-18T00:30:16.559-04:002009-09-18T00:30:16.559-04:00Let's wait and see.Let's wait and see.Bernie O'Harehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13756311150988957401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-47708252133535370752009-09-18T00:23:18.300-04:002009-09-18T00:23:18.300-04:00In lieu of a double-digit tax increase, will Mr. A...In lieu of a double-digit tax increase, will Mr. Angle be proposing a commensurate spending cut as an alternative? Will taxpayers be told that the County cannot afford to reducing spending or enact cost-saving measures? In the midst of a longer than avg. recession (and yes folks, despite the talk, we're still in a recession), a percentage increase of >10% in taxes represents insult AND injury.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
