the only way to clean up ROTTENdam and stop the division is to get the government OUT OF the baseball business and any other 'non government' issue.

Start taking care of the roads, water lines, sewage treatment plant....blah blah blah!!

THAT is what people pay taxes for. The rest of the 'fluff' is just used as a 'vote getting block' that only causes great division among the people.

NOT because they care so deeply....DUH!!

Has anyone driven down any ROTTENdam roads lately!!! It is beginning to resemble the city. OMG!!

Pot holes everywhere and sunken  manholes!!!

But noooooooooooooooooooooooo.....the dimwit taxpayers are more concerned with BASEBALL FIELDS!!!

Ya just can't make this crap up!!

What is it with the sunken manholes, anyway?

Quoted from Madam X

What is it with the sunken manholes, anyway?

at the 'boys club'

Eastern Avenue was given a cheapo do-over with sunken manholes thrown in for free. Why the sunken manholes? They wreck cars!

Lazy and cheap
Low bidder work

this blog is not meant for city problems....the subject at hand is Rotterdam Little League  fields....for the children of this Town...

it seems that with everything that has gone on ..this issue went by the wayside....and the minute there is positive news

OMG....condem and austricise....people of this Town know how to sling the untruth dirt and cannot give anyone a head's up comment..

no wonder this town is in the shape it's in....no community bonding here....

THANK YOU FDG AND LARNED.....THERE WILL BE MANY MORE VOLUNTEERS TO MAKE THE FIELDS A REALITY....

I think it's great that they volunteered.....

what the county does is wrong....our government should NOT be in the baseball business......shame shame shame.....

it could have been 'Golub baseball park' 'proctors baseball park' 'GE baseball park' etc etc etc.......

although corporations aren't forced to 'donate' they are compelled to just by virtue of what they are....

corporations are human beings are they not?

governments are to keep the sovereign humans apart from each other and step in when extortion happens...unfortunately the
government has it's own idea of legal extortion via taxes.......

well, if that's the way you feel...then stop the chatter about people involved that try to do good....good and bad in everything....

look at the good for the kids.....

Quoted from Patches

suit up or shut up.

Suit up, serve one term, put in an assessor to lower your property assessment, then get out.  

Quoted from Patches

well, if that's the way you feel...then stop the chatter about people involved that try to do good....good and bad in everything....

look at the good for the kids.....

chatter about saying someone does good isn't bad....

when they start using kids as the 'tool' it becomes a sacred cow for corruption much like the golden calf in the bible
or the bull on wall street.....

the main stream media does a very good job of making a social church setting up all kinds of sacred cows....

sure we all like a good deed, and there is nothing wrong with it....I'm wary on the hijacking of such for votes or
personal gain.......it's in the resumes of politicians performances and the mouthpieces of the media  

JMHO

Quoted from Patches

for all of you with the NASTY comments......what do you do for the community???......

Don't expect senders and her internet living republican buddies to give you a straight answer.

All improvements - including baseball fields and softball fields - within the town parks belong to ALL the taxpayers in the town.  They should be available for ALL town residents to use.

Quoted from senders

it could have been 'Golub baseball park' 'proctors baseball park' 'GE baseball park' etc etc etc.......

you mean like the Eunice Esposito Park???

Quoted from DemocraticVoiceOfReason

but they are not....I can't go use the baseball fields for a family game now can I......BUT, I can buy the candy for the
fund raisers can't I?

p.s. I'm NOT a republican or some other canned sardine

Quoted from bumblethru

you mean like the Eunice Esposito Park???

I guess if you count Eunice as a corporation...I didn't mean to put proctors as a namesake either.....

point being:

Times union center
Gillette park
etc etc.....

I don't understand the extortion from one sovereign taxpayer person(joe/suzie smith) to another sovereign taxpayer person
(corporation).....

I don't get to claim my tax 'donation' on my income taxes but the 'matching' done by the sovereign personhood called
corporation CAN...and they get basically elbow rubbing free meals/transportation/lodging etc etc etc.....

'hello mr.corporation have this meal on us. glad you're in town. enjoy the complementary movie tickets.' etc etc etc
