    You can lie all you want but people will see through it. I personally don't like tax incentives for a select few. I would rather see property taxes lowered for everyone instead. Just the fact you need incentives tells you that local taxes are too high for our community to be competitive in the first place.

    Comparing the war to Carl is like comparing apples to watermelons.

    Wanna go with me to Carls next fund raiser? I'll cover your ticket... I don't think you ever met the man. I haven't...

    Carl does. See his drawing of Empire State Zones...

    Carl doesn't.

    If developers like Carl didn't get free rides, the taxes wouldn't have to be so high...

    Not really. He gets his pockets lined due to back room deals he's made. You know, greasing palms, government corruption? Just the thing he's railing against.

    Tell you what, I'll do one better. If you can get me in as Press (I'm a freelance journalist for WikiNews) I'll meet him, and interview him for WikiNews, and you can even post the article here on SpeakUp (It's licensed Creative Commons, so no issue with it). It's wikinews, so it has to be unbiased, and neutral point of view.

    This way, I'm not in any way supporting his campaign. Open to deal?

    So, is it ok to make a profit off a fake reason of "I'm poor, and I'm going to go broke if I try to develop properties here"?

    Kind of like pissing away millions in taxes, so the little guy's taxes have to go up?

    Also I'm more liberal than you think. My issue comes down to how money is spent, what it is spent on along with the value that is returned to our community. Currently the way local governments/county/state are ran we are receiving very little value for what we are charged for services.
    I'll agree. We are getting very little for our investment. However, government is not something you can put an ROI on.

    How did this get turned into a conversation about Paldino?

    The war question is a legitimate one that deserves discussion. . You boys take your Carl fetish elsewhere.

    Pulled my sign out of the front yard today. I can't vote for a person that endorses corporate welfare (see his bass pro article).

    Limiting welfare in ALL forms is a basic tenet of freedom. Furthermore, he has no business getting involved in the placement of a mosque, church, deli, glue factory, or any other private or non-profit organization. Neither does the louse in the oval office. It's an obvious sign that government has grown too large when the political class is involved in these matters.

    Anyone need a sign?

    Where have you been the last 20 years? Carl has received more welfare than most, of course he is going to support it.

    Look at how much paladino gained during maselillo and griffin. He doesn't have byron brown in his pocket and so he wants to go above his head.

    wnymedia did a spell check on Carl's letter and published it unedited. 28 errors.
