  • We're All Nonprofit Now February 5, 2012
    I have been watching over the years as non-profit foundations enormously have increased their assets and sway over the political and cultural life of America (essentially on our dime) with no real oversight or controls. […]
  • The Fatal Backward Step: Penn State's Public Relations Catastrophe February 5, 2012
    Be it in war, politics, or business crisis management, it's rarely the initial threat that kills you. It's far more important to pay attention to how you handle that threat. […]

Brownsville, your taxes are about to go WAY up

PostDateIcon August 28th, 2010 | PostAuthorIcon Author: Chris

Saw this on the City of Brownsville website today.  Click on the image to view in a new window:

A workshop and a special meeting will be held on Tuesday, August 31, 2010 at 5:45 P.M., and 6:00 P.M. in the Commission Chambers on the Second Floor of the Brownsville City Hall – Federal Building, located at 1001 East Elizabeth Street, Brownsville, Cameron County, Texas, 78520.

The entire PDF of the notice can be viewed here.

Not a good idea to raise taxes in the middle of the worst recession of the past 50 years.

I’m going to the meeting to let them know that I think it’s a stupid idea.

-Chris

  • The Perversion of the Words of Our Lord Jesus Christ by the Sinner Barack H. Obama February 5, 2012
    I’m afraid we need a little Sunday morning theology. Hopefully someone at the White House will read this and realize just how ill advised the President was to do what he did this week and we should be praying hard for him to see the error of his ways on this. In the Bible we read these things: “And God blessed them. And God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and mul […]

  • Excommunicate the Bishops. February 5, 2012
    Promoted from the diaries Most of my writing is on foreign policy. There are few other topic areas other than the law on which I’m comfortable writing. However, as streiff notes, I, like most other Catholics, got to hear a heartfelt letter from my Bishop — a living examplar of St. John Chrysostom’s famous (possibly apocryphal) maxim — explaining that clear o […]

  • Did a Former Nancy Pelosi Aide Screw Up the Komen Decision? Ogilvy Public Relations Should Explain. February 4, 2012
    Judd Legum at Think Progress did what appears to be a pre-emptive strike against former Bush White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer claiming that Fleisher was “secretly involved” in the Susan G. Komen Foundations’ strategy on planned parenthood. In fact, according to people I’ve spoken to who are aware of the decision making processes at Komen, Fleischer […]

  • Scribecast: Spirit Airlines CEO Fights New Federal Regulations February 4, 2012
    The U.S. Department of Transportation imposed new regulations on airlines Jan. 24 that were supposed to benefit consumers. The rules require all government taxes and fees to be included in advertised fares and allow passengers to withhold payment for 24 hours after making a reservation, if it’s one week before the flight’s departure. Some consumers might be […]

  • For Now, Government Still Lets You Pick Your Own Roommate February 4, 2012
    The people of the United States ordained a Constitution of limited government.  As time passes, the people have more of the “government” and less of the “limited.”  Americans must work at maintaining their freedoms.  Defense of the constitutional freedom of association involved in choosing roommates to share housing illustrates the effort required.  Governme […]

  • Government Unions Support California Tax Hike February 3, 2012
    Two well-connected government unions in California are teaming with Gov. Jerry Brown to support a multibillion-dollar tax increase. The California Teachers Association and Service Employees International Union were the top two spenders for lobbying in 2011 with combined efforts totaling more than $10 million, according to Sacramento Bee. Now they’re using th […]

  • Using ADT Funds Breaks Promises to the Public January 27, 2012
    The liberal majority on the San Antonio City Council and Bexar County Commissioners Court have a habit of ignoring the views of citizens in order to subsidize elite slivers of the population. The San Antonio Tea Party’s objective is to challenge this habit, and ensure every citizen understands how elected officials, local as well as […]

  • The Voter ID Battle January 5, 2012
    Exit polls in Iowa showed that regardless of whom the Republican caucus voters were supporting, their motivation was to beat President Obama. Liberals understand this, and they have launched a “Voter ID” battle to counter the energized conservative voters in the 2012 election. It has become increasingly obvious that liberals are going to do whatever […]

  • Protecting the Party Rather than Protecting American Citizens January 3, 2012
    Last week, several south Texas law enforcement officials protected the Democratic Party and the Obama Administration’s failed border security policies, rather than speak out to protect American citizens. Using a White House roundtable and Democratic forum, these law enforcement officials claimed the U.S.-Mexico border region is not turning into a war zone. O […]
