"They" want everything. Yet complain when it comes time to pay for such.

I hear over and over that these same people are against "big governement" yet wish to build and buy the biggest and bestest of "stuff" - by that same government that they so dispise.

It used to be what was needed. Now it's big Christmas wishes and dreams.

I never met anyone that enjoys paying more for something every year.
I am glad I can see the improvements my tax contributions are making to the town and I'm happy I own a home in Meredith but that doesn't mean I should enjoy paying more every year. I'm happy with all the improvements Meredith has made. It's made owning a home there much more enjoyable. I hope I can afford to continue to own it for years to come, that's my concern. The past few years with high inflation has cut deep into my retirement spending, esp insurances, so if I seem like I'm complaining too much I apologize.
Voicing a concern on this forum should be accepted, not condemned.
If you're happy with paying more money every year, then I'm happy for you. By the way, I don't "dispise" Government.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
