SlamDunked

Tuesday's KCMO election results regarding the medical sales tax issue reaffirms my faith in voter intelligence. Despite a huge infusion of $ and high profile lobbying, voters weren't fooled by the boondogle, by a wide margin. It was an amazing denial of how things work as the supporters made promises that would never be fulfilled. The Jackson County Commission popped for $800,000 to support the issue...yikes.

Hopefully the Platte County Commissioners (and local elected officials) take notice...tax increases will get tough scrutiny, despite whatever money is spent to support them.
