A comment from a local business owner

First it was nice having lunch with the people who showed up for the Wakeman Business meetings at the new Poore House. Thank you for the invitation and the good conversation. I particularly enjoyed the conversation we had about the ability to defy gravity. That was quite interesting. Special thanks to Kathleen for her input on the subject.

I will also take credit for the question to Jim about, “Why would anyone in their right mind vote for more taxes.” Seeing that I am fairly ignorant when it comes to government (which makes me fit right in with the people we have in it-for the most part) I appreciated your input to the federal/state taxes compared to a local village tax. I would agree as long as the money is being used wisely that the local tax that was passed was a good move. I hope I don’t see Tim driving another new cruiser from it, he needs to get on a bicycle and get some exercise. You could use that extra income for shooting lessons for him if you like though. You never know when he might be forced to shoot a rabid coon.

Thanks for lunch.

Note: David asked me to post this email he sent me. David has nine full time employees and is probably the biggest employer in town. Many thanks to David for your humor as well as your serious comments on the local income tax.
