As we all recall, not that we can ever forget, the BCC in collusion with unrepentent lobbyist, the former Honorable John Thrasher, passed a garbage tax on us all backed up with the threat of forfeiting our homes if we did not bend to their will. One of the lame excuses was that this tax scam would help combat unsightly litter around the county. Now that this has, after a year, proved to be a lie, can we get our money and freedom back? I doubt it. Not until the commissioners responsible see the writing on the wall with their imminent loss of feeding rights at the public trough ala Tommy Hazouri.
That little rant having been voiced, I came across this newspaper story from my hometown county in NY. Rather than cut and paste, here is the link for anyone interested to read the entire article.

I think this is a very good idea and would like to see it take root here with one minor addition. Print the data in the newspaper.
I'm interested in your replies.

"Their lives are truly meaningless
And we are busy being blessed
With all that we can take and pocket
No one needs to know
We're the plug
And they're the socket
Give us the juice
And we'll glow..." Jim Steinman
