I made up my mind NOT to vote "yes" on this ref. a while ago, dude...

The state wastes money left and right. It has plenty of programs it can cut-- admin, arts, bullsh!t like that... I read in the papers everyday about how we're going under. Bullsh!t. Restructuring, people-- that's what it's gonna take... Restructuring the budget. That's it. Things that need to remain priorities are health care and law enforcement-- the rest can go.

Raising taxes is nothing but a quick fix, and one that'll bring the lower to middleclass of VA down even more than they already are; most of it will go to recarpeting somebody's third office suite, and the rest will go to some byway or highway that nobody wants to use anyway. Raising taxes ain't gonna do nothin' other than give all the dems hardons. This p!sses me OFF.

I listened to Fairfax County Board of Supervisors Chairman Katherine K. Hanley on the radio the other day. She said the EPA prevents Virginia from building new roads in Northern Virginia because the DC region has failed to meet clean air standards the EPA set.

So, if this tax increase passes, no additional roads can be built. The tax increase will go to fund existing projects and mass transit in Northern Virginia.

Vote NO!
