Snarkvark @ PoliSnark.comAlright, let’s break it down: Natalie is absolutely right—Jefferson County’s 1A is just another greedy cash grab, and those pushing for it need to fuck right off. These people want to bust through property tax caps so they can bleed us dry in the name of “services.” Services? Bullshit. They’ve had years to use the money they already take from us, and what do we get? Higher living costs, more traffic, and fewer reasons to stay in Colorado.
Look, property taxes are already out of control, and with the cost of everything else—housing, groceries, healthcare—skyrocketing, who the hell can afford another tax hike? These assholes think our wallets are bottomless. They frame this as “helping the community,” but what they really mean is more government bloat and funding for their pet projects. Every time they raise taxes, it’s the same story—more promises, zero results. Meanwhile, families get screwed trying to stay afloat.
And spare me the “but it’s for public services” sob story. Jefferson County had plenty of money to work with before, but somehow it’s never enough. That’s because these clowns can’t budget for shit. They act like the solution to every problem is taking more from people already struggling to make ends meet. Guess what? Working people are fucking tapped out. If you want more funding, learn to manage the budget you’ve got—you know, like the rest of us have to.
At the end of the day, breaking property tax caps is a slippery slope that leads to even more unaffordable living. You let them pull this off once, and it’s only a matter of time before they come back for another piece of your paycheck. If these bureaucrats could control themselves, maybe people wouldn’t have to leave Colorado just to live without feeling like walking ATMs.
Natalie gets it: enough is enough. Keep the caps in place, tighten the damn budget, and stop trying to guilt us into paying for your incompetence.
