The wonderful right to vote
Wow! We're actually voting -- in record numbers for the primary. Can it be that we're recognizing the value of democracy? Have we realized how lucky we are to be able to vote?
I haven't gone to the polls early, as so many of my friends have. But I will be there tomorrow. After much thought, I'm voting against the property tax despite the fact that it would help me plenty when I downsize in the next couple of years.
The current proposal is a band-aid solution that will help some people but not others. It will also cut badly needed funding for our schools.

I think that people are voting because we are all pretty fed up with the STATE OF THE UNION...between the war, the economy, the Federal deficit, etc...we are longing for the good ole days.
We have an opportunity to make history this year - an amazing reality for those of us who grew up in the 60's. Who would have ever told us that a woman and a black man are SERIOUS contenders for the White House. Amazing and wonderful.
We are indeed starting to become the land of opportunity, at last.
The current proposal may be a band-aid -- but it's better than nothing. Insurance costs and property taxes are way out of control and something needs to be done QUICKLY.
Good luck to us.
