What Does Evans Need?
#2 → Protecting Tax Dollars
Doesn’t Their Oath of Office Require The Protecting of Tax Dollars?
This is just political speak. No candidate for local office will say they will spend the taxpayer’s money foolishly. Once they take the oath of office, all bets are off!
Here is just one example. This one suggestion would save Evans taxpayers a few million dollars. The current town board thought this suggestion was ridiculous!
The first phase of the recently approved water project has an estimated $1,352,455 in engineering fees. Evans shares its assessor with another town. Why can’t Evans hire or share an engineer to work on the water project? Isn’t saving a million dollars “protecting tax dollars”?

QUOTES
FREEDOM OF SPEECH
Why should freedom of speech and freedom of the press be allowed? Why should a government which is doing what it believes to right allow itself to be criticized? It would not allow opposition by lethal weapons. Ideas are much more fatal things than guns. Why should any man be allowed to buy a printing press and disseminate pernicious opinions calculated to embarrass the government?
THE TRUTH
Truth is the most precious thing. That's why we should ration it.
HONESTY vs HYPOCRISY
Honesty in politics is the result of strength; hypocrisy is the result of weakness.
GOOD INTENTIONS
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
POLITICAL POWER
Political power, properly so called, is merely the organised power of one class for oppressing another.
GOVERNMENT’S VOICE
Government hears only its own voice … It knows it hears only its own voice and yet it deceives itself that it hears the people’s voice.
THE GOAL OF MARXISM
Marxism is not about free speech and debate, it is about domination, repression, indoctrination, conformity, and compliance.
DANGEROUS DECISIONS
It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.
Leadership
Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and in actions.
