Blog II: Thinks I Think I Think –
“A $72.00 Stimulus Package”
Dear Windsor Rate Payers,
I write today to urge you to utilize your gracious tax payer rebate provided by your wise and esteemed city council in the most prosperous way possible … spend it on yourself and spend it in Windsor!
Where to spend my money? First things first … I need new clothes … no I should take my wife to dinner … no kids! No wait, take the wife and kids to dinner. Better yet a night out with the boy-z! Okay forget all that other stuff … why not a massage and a new self help DVD. Ya that’s it “stimulation to stimulate!”
This is harder than I thought and a real responsibility! Windsor’s economy could really use the economic stimulus and I – “naa we” have a civic duty to help our local economy. This is each of our responsibilities!
So where to spend the money $$$$?
Perhaps we should send it to the CUPE office and repay the workers for 101 day vacation. I think the county landfill will need to cover the overtime for all the extra rubbish dumped into their landfill. Or perhaps Major Francis would benefit from a return to sender (since the mailing of the 80,000 cheques will cost in excess of $70,000.00). Windsor Waist Disposal has costs to cover.
Wait hold the phone! The feds … that’s it we may best serve our country and our federal deficit by sending our cheques to Parliament Hill.
This is all too much. I’m thinking pizza and a case of beer might be about right.
At least that what I think I think.
What so you think??
JK

Things I Think I Think:
A Bridge Too Far (a.k.a. A Bridge over the river of Common sense?)
Can some one help me please? (God knows I need it!) How is it that we live in the busiest cross border trading community in the world and we can’t seem to cross the river of common sense?
As I see it (since this is my Blog … it is how I see it.) we have a private citizen, entrepreneur … “gazillionaire” wishing to build us a bridge! In-deed Mr. Maron has already spend several zillions preparing to build a twined bridge and we can’t get the politicians to get out of his way and let him build it at little to know cost to the tax payer!
Instead the pollutions wish to push “study after self serving study”; proposals that will not fit “our community requirements” nor serve to satisfy anyone. Who wishes the party of Common Sense” was in office vs. the name chasers and political do righters who only serve the “Party of Self Indulgence”.
“COME ON PEOPLE” … does any of this make sense. Vs. Private citizen and business man wishes to spend to help his business and provide a gateway of commerce and trade with a far … far overdue upgrade and we say no … no thanks we’d rather spend “gazillions” of tax payer dollars. (Please tax me more to pay for the government bridge … I have lots of money just laying around my house).
Next you will tell me that Wayne Gretzky is offering to build us a Hockey arena in downtown Windsor at little or no cost to the tax payers and we will turn him down to!
WAIT! This didn’t already happen did it? Please help.
At least that’s what I think I think.
