Letter: Winners and losers in raising taxes

From: Mark White

Columbus

Almost every day, there has been an Orchid or Onion from residents either for or against the county council raising taxes.

Usually the people against taxes being raised are the ones who suffer the most. There are four council members that don’t need to be re-elected if they decide to run, which I am sure they will. It is all about power.

So to the residents that are against taxes being raised, either you have to live with it or move elsewhere. You that attend city and county council meetings, you are wasting your time. Certain council members, whether city or county, get their way and they don’t want to hear what you have to say.

When more people start leaving Columbus for somewhere else, maybe the city and county will wake up.
