Today's Headlines Show Fragile Economy
While international finance is well beyond the scope of Nanaimo Info Blog, the reality of how the new economy impacts Nanaimo is not.
In spite of example after example of what happens when governments continue to finance todays wants with the next generation's wealth and continue to follow their citizens rather than lead, there is no appetite on Nanaimo City Council or city hall management to bring spending into line.
In fact you have Councillor Brennan declaring their is no evidence of taxpayer fatigue in Nanaimo as she defends what some would call out of control wages at city hall. Perhaps in her sphere of support there is no evidence of such fatigue. I am sure if you were to ask members of the IAFF or CUPE or the exempt staff at city hall if we can afford more tax increases, they would agree with Brennan in her belief that increasing taxes at a rate three times that of inflation is not a problem.
If you agree with her say nothing, if you disagree perhaps you should voice your opinion by giving her a call, or sending her an email.
