Guess what, you just stated that the taxpayers are supposed to fund this parade.
Let me just fill you in on something..... City/County/State government is not meant to fund everything. If you would like that, please feel free to enter a Socialist or Communist Country. When City government throws taxpayer money around without restraint, you can end up with a $5 million dollar deficit.
Welcome to Schenectady!
Guess what - I did NOT. The Republican city officials could work with the business community and others to solicit donations for the parade. Republicans don't seem to have any trouble demanding huge contributions for their own political campaigns.
And drop the ignorant Socialist/Communist barbs. They are completely unfounded and just serve to prove that you lack the creativity and intelligence to actually debate the issues.

Are you for real DV?
"Unfounded" ???? Schenectady = government (taxpayer funded): gin bills/bars/drinking establishments, bakeries, restaurants, theaters, catering halls, hotels, appliance store, gym, office buildings, garages, parking lots, student housing, hair salon, to name a few
The above paid for with mostly with taxpayer money, and now mostly totally tax exempt.
Unfounded????? We've provided EVIDENCE of the TRUTHS, the FACTS.
You don't have any guts to actually debate the issues or carry on conversation based on the facts and evidence.
Heck, you don't even have the BALLS to reply to the questions posed to you!!

DVOR - Man, you should really check yourself before you wreck yourself...Totally ignoring the fact that the city administration has NOTHING to do with this parade, I'll also point out that the Democrats in Saratoga hold a majority of commissioner seats..three dems and two republicans...and one of the Republicans was openly campaigning for Democratic candidates last year. Saratoga County is still Republican, but the city has tilted toward the Democrats. But again, politics has nothing to do with this.

Of course, you believe politics should have nothing to do with it -- when the Republicans are the ones who failed.

Your whole being is a failure. Learn some restraint at the fridge. Learn how to tie a tie. Get an apartment and pay some rent. Get a haircut, you look like a hedgehog. Get out and try to lose your virginity....I take that back. Dont do that! I don't wish that on any guy, I mean woman.....

Then tell us DV, where are the Dems in Schenectady with a Memorial Day parade? Huh? Oh, of course, don't answer that.
And tell us, how have the Reps failed in the city. Since the past 8 years have been exclusively Dem in the city, and since the TAXABLE tax base in the city has gone DOWN, and since the tax BILLS in the city have gone UP, and since the home values in the city have gone WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY down, and since virtually no houses in the city are selling because no one wants to buy a house in the city, and since the city, and since struggling homeowners are going to lose their homes---UNDER THE DEMS now has a $5 million deficit, would you care to explain how the Republicans are at fault?
The DEMS are the ones that gave out the 100% tax exemptions to the downtown wealthy and politically connected, thus making the financially struggling homeowners pay the tax bills of the millionaires, explain how the Reps were at fault?
Care to tell us what private retail are moving into downtown WITHOUT taxpayer handouts? Can you answer that??????? Huh? Didn't think so.

Well it looks like Saratoga will have a Vets parade. Will Schenectady?
Speaking of which, for the first time in Rotterdam the grand marshals will not be vets, which is a slap in the face to the meaning of the parade.
So who should be ashamed?
