Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I don't actually trust the people's values enough for that.
But, then, I'm living in a state that's been occasionally gutted by the initiative process, and am wary with cause.
I'm too afraid of the people whose values are "I shouldn't have to pay property taxes because my kids don't go to the public schools".
(edit: plei and I are as one in our x-posty mistrust)
I must be PMS'ing cause I've been on the verge of tears all day. I hate this.
No. I'll get none of it back at tax time. The feds are already taking money out of my paycheck for college loans, and they've been huffing up my tax returns for a long time now.Oh. Sorry for the long delayed xpost up there. I started the post, hung a pair of curtains, then submitted the post.
Hec, this may sound goofy, but is there any way you can learn where that bracket border is and work OT only up to that point and no further?

To which I say, "Fine. Then every person you come in contact with that provides some sort of service had best have gone to a public school. Eff you."
In AimeeLand, that person's head would explode. Cause I would shoot them.

Sigh, and nod. When they finally give up and pull the plug on this poor state, the verdict will surely be that Prop 13 done it.
it would send a clear message to the government about what the peoples' actual values are.
It might also reveal why democracy isn't that great an idea.
MG, it's been a stressful while for you. I'm sorry you're on the verge of tears, but it seems definitely provoked by life.

In my perfect world, the consequences of these people's idiotic actions would be immediate enough for them to change their stoopid ways.
But yes, there are obvious downsides.
