Dear Ms. Fyffe,

I understand you want to take more tax money from property owners for a new bond for acquisition of open spaces. I would really like to know how this is going to benefit little old widows in tennis shoes who cannot afford the property taxes they are paying now. You KNOW that if they cannot pay their taxes, these people will be kicked out into the street.

I am very upset at the amount of spending the County Supervisors are doing on projects that we don't need, while the taxpayer is being confronted with the guns of sheriffs that kick them out into the streets from homes they own free and clear and that may have been in the family for generations.

Remember, homes that are taken for this purpose means NO COMPENSATION of any kind for these elderly retirees, many of whom are disabled and will never survive in the streets. The equity in their homes is given to rich bankers who can afford to pay their taxes because they know they will get a bonanza. This is a pure conspiracy between government and these rich bankers. That is what is supposed to happen in banana republics, not in the United States. You folks need to learn to live within your budget. Other people have to.

This is so unconstitutional it stinks!

What can you people be thinking? This is INSANE!
