Jimmy D’Alessandro Protests Sonny Spossey’s recent Tax Increase
in the City of Washington

March 28, 2008

Sonny’s “Sneaky Tax” increase is a sure way to increase the problems that are facing the city of Washington.

One of the main problems that will arise out of the city of Washington’s sneaky tax increase is the difficulty that local business will have making money in the city.

In addition, the city tax increases will make landlords more and more willing to eventually abadoned their overtax properties, leaving less tax base and more problems for the city.

But Spossey decided that being fiscally responsible was less important than rewarding his friends in city government. The result was Sonny’s sneaky tax, one that has left many land owners screaming in pain.
Why not real change in the city of Washington? Can’t IT be farmed out? How about other possible savings? Have these even been tried?

Or is the goal to only take care of those that supported you, Sonny?
