So, voters, who you gonna blame?
Who you gonna blame when Collier County closes its Vanderbilt Beach and East Naples branches because the county has lost millions of dollars due to supposed tax relief?
It will happen.
Who you gonna blame when your neighbors and friends lose their jobs in the libraries and in other county departments because the county has lost millions of dollars due to supposed tax relief?
It will happen.
Who you gonna blame when EMTs can't get to your medical emergency in a timely fashion because of loss of personnel because the county has lost millions in dollars due to supposed tax relief?
It will happen.
Who you gonna blame when sheriff's deputies can't get out to your home break-in because the county has lost millions of dollars due to supposed tax relief?
It will happen.
Who you gonna complain to when there aren't enough deputies and Naples police officers to enforce the speed limit and stop red light runners because the county has lost millions of dollars due to supposed tax relief?
It will happen.
And do you think all that you have given up in the name of tax relief is worth the $200 or $300 you MAY save in property taxes?
Who you gonna blame?
Blame the 65 percent of you stupid enough to vote for that pretend tax relief bill. Local governments now have two choices: raise taxes (fat chance!) or cut essential services.
You voted for it; you have no right to complain when the county and the city are forced to cut a lot of services you consider essential.
By the way, I voted against the bill. And I'm losing services, too. Thanks.
And so it goes.
