New tax for us. And it won't even help solve the problem.

Gazette spin:  "The city of ------- was able to keep taxes low by implementing a $10 wheel tax."
No, the douches just added a another tax instead of using act 10 to save us money.  They kowtowed to the unions and now the unions won't budge on anything.  They didn't shop for better benefit packages, or requiring teachers to pay a very minor amount toward their own benefits and pensions.  No no no, they rushed contracts through knowing the new budget bill was looming.  Real stellar group we got there.
Governor Walker is not to blame here.  This is purely the city's doing.  Other cities are prospering because they implemented Act 10 savings.  But oh no, my family has to live in one of only 3 cities that didn't.  All 3 cities are struggling big time!  We have a $8-$10 million budget deficit and this is how they plan to fix it, just add another tax.  And this tax will only generate about $2 million.  So it won't even freakin' fix the deficit problem!  And they wonder why this town if failing!  This new tax will just be another way for them to waste our hard earned money.
