Now, can any cheerleaders for Schenectady respond and explain HOW the CONSISTENT FAILURE is an indication that Schenectady city is improving?


Of course, all of us intelligent people on these boards know for a FACT, and INDISPUTABLE TRUTH, that cheerleaders for the city will NOT address this, will NOT address the consistently FALLING home prices.  


IF, and this is a BIG IF, any cheerleaders has enough guts to respond to this post, the most such cheerleaders will do is do the consistent "yawn" which is the normal response when challenged to provide an shred of evidence of what they he says.

The "yawn" is as much a certainty from the Dem Voice of Failure as is the consistency of the failing home prices in the city of Schenectady is a certainty.


And another FACT is that ALL other cities have MUCH LOWER tax BILLS than does Schenectady
