But I like ice cream.
I'd rather not sleep at night knowing my fridge is full, my account is full and if I play along long enough I cash out with a padded pension. I see a lot of chocolate in that video.
Or I can not sleep at night not knowing if actions of those in office will raise my property taxes so high the numbers don't work any longer to stay in business or keep my home?
I could pander to those who make their living in the refugee importation business. Help them import "votes" to keep me elected
Then make sure my pay check and benes always out paces the cost increases these actions add to the community. Hey I am going to need to get petitions signed to stay on the ballot. I bet a lot of people involved in the refugee importation business would be more than happy to help. You want a pay check you better keep me elected.
I can pander to those looking for discounts by way of IDA's. I could sleep at night knowing the businesses who are receiving tax discounts are competing against other business but not me. Doesn't effect me. I don't have to compete against them. Hey if those discounts cause my property taxes to increase I'll just get a pay raise pushed through for myself.
I can easily pander with items like costly hockey rinks, over the top senior centers and school facilities. I would push things through that kept my compensation increasing to offset the cost those items add to my property taxes.
I'd make sure I'd show up at a lot of the event at the senior center. Seniors know how to vote. I'd even make a point of serving free lunches every so often...A nice hello, how are you doing? How's the hip today? That can be a vote come November.
I'd make sure I'd show up at events at the town owned hockey rink. Maybe even ask if I can be the one to hand out the team awards at the end of the year. After the event shake hands and ask "What can I do for you? What would make your hockey experience better? Take notes...New lockers, maybe even a skate sharpener or new vending machines. I wouldn't care what I gave away or spent because I'd make sure my compensation outpaced the property taxes increases caused by my actions.
I bet I could sleep at night. Many do and don't seem to have a problem.
Jeremy and the ecdems.com may literally support and work to get Joe Biden elected. We are all witnessing issues he has stringing a few sentences together. Same issues I saw in my grandfather as he aged. If a group of people can sleep at night knowing they are going to support Joe for the presidency I can to.
I truly don't get it.
