| Topic | I gotta say cities and towns in the US are complete garbage |
| Zeus 09/13/17 5:01:01 PM #14: | Zanzenburger posted... Taxes are supposed to cover public spaces like roads and sidewalks, and the US is all about cutting taxes, especially in the more rural parts of the US. In my own city, the citizens are making the town go bankrupt from tax cutting, to the point that we can't even afford our own police or firefighters, much less road maintenance and water lines. I'm honestly running for city council next spring just so I can knock some sense into our ridiculous system. That's a bogus assumption for the following reason: Connecticut, one of the richest states in the USA, has one of the highest gas taxes in the country and some of the highest car taxes in the country -- both of which are supposed to pay for roads -- but CT's roads and bridges are ranked among the worst in the country. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ...
