[QUOTE="eyexer, post: 148643, member: 315"] let's examine some of that. First off Williston ND doesn't need three fire stations. And they don't need an arsenal of fire trucks, equipment that would rival major cities in this country. My son is a fireman here and it's absolutely painful to see the amount of stuff and the money they have spent on stations, trucks, etc. Our counties and cities don't need to build fifteen to thirty million dollar offices. there are plenty of things we can cut back on at a local level. Our property taxes in this state are some of the highest in the country per $100,000 of valuation. We got buy on much less here in this state for many years. At least the western part of the state did. Now the local governments and schools have gotten to the point where they want what the red river valley has. The problem with that is the money doesn't make it back to this area. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] It doesn't work that way because of how the lease system works.
