A Question for Carmen & Co

Who is financing the $20,000 dollars it takes for the bond election to take place on May 10? According the Edinburg Politics.

“The PAC has currently raised almost half of its intended funding goal of $20,000, with more pledges coming in daily,” Guajardo reported.

It would be interesting to see the names of these people. Not to mention what these people do for a living. Someone is trying to get rich off the taxpayers. The 112 million dollar question is. Who? I'm calling it the 112 million dollar tax increase. Guess what's going to happen if this thing does pass? You got it! Taxes are going up.

Don't get me wrong. We need the classrooms. But the way this is being handled. And the 20 million they want to spend on fine art centers. No thank you!

Reality Check

Someone told me that Gene Espinoza is expecting to take the same votes his uncle Charlie took this past Nov. That is not going to happen. You see, Gene has stepped on way to many toes. Not to mention how arrogant the the guy is.

Why would you vote for Gene Espinoza? Let me try to answer this! I figure some people will say this. That he has done good things for the community. Really like what?

The new Edinburg City Hall over budget some 10 million dollars.
The new Edinburg police station over budget some 4 million dollars.
The new Edinburg Library. Just look at the location. Someone got rich off the city.

Giving Joseph Palacios (Nick's kid) a job as project manager.
Giving Ricky Palacios law partner Daniel Rios the city attorney job. With no experience and being paid $40,000 a month.

Let's not forget FNB and Gene's employer in Rio Grande Steel. This is how Gene makes a living. Something needs to be built. Let me vote on my employer for the steel contract. Big bonus check for Gene.

If you treat the city as a business. We would be broke. Just two projects and over budget some 14 million dollars. And we the taxpayers get the tab.

Alma the brainless Garza

It seems that Alma is not a very bright person. Alma do you know what 2 plus 2 equals to? Then why in the world is the city over budget some 14 million dollars on just two projects?

It seems that someone can't count, Can't add or subtract. Can't multiply or divide. But she sure knows how to blow someone else's money.

Like the saying goes. It's the dumb and dumber show!
