I wanted to address the proposed across the board tax increases that our local politicians are addressing.  From what I see, everything from utilities to cell phone bills will increase!  All of this without a cutting any of the many services that we enjoy.  You know, the terrible roads, high crime, 100 million dollar parks and a camera at every intersection to give you as many tickets as a computer can write!  Make sure you call/email your Alderman, County Board Member and anyone else that will listen. Stop the madness!
