Muscatine

Over One hundred homes being repossessed, only very lower paying jobs available, Pollution to give you lung problems and you can't afford insurance,  City gets a new source of revenue cutting our grass, tearing down homes, and many other ways of getting your money, grab the K-y because here comes your property tax increases.  Don't blame the County, its the City of Muscatine and those right wing nut jobs in charge. Its inevitable as both Mayorial candidates are members.  

The problem is that the people who are being abused aren't willing to vote those right wing republicans out, because of fear they will loose their job.   Muscatine will tax themselves to a small town with no middle class and citizens only wanting to survive.

 "I can make an educated guess as to what the President’s jobs plan will be. First, extension of the payroll tax credit. Second, an infrastructure bank. Third, targeted tax breaks for hiring employees.

None of this stuff will work any better than the bailout plans and stimulus schemes".

First high taxes were why we chose to live over the river and beyond the woods. Secondly, all of this has been done to death already by Reagan, clinton, both bushes, and now obama. We were even offered a tax credit to hire from a jobs program*don't recall the name* JTPBR, some such thing in 1985 but we were too small a business to utilize that. But there has been little change there, except there are so many more out there without jobs to choose from. I recall that the first bush stimulous put one of our grandshildren in a higher bracket by a hundred dollars or so and actually cost more in the long run. Failure to the people and endless wins for ameri-corps.
