The more of our money we allow gov’t to take…the more they spend. Seems to be a trend. Maybe we should vote ourselves a tax break and see if that won’t rein-in run-a-way gov’t spending. About 42% voted for a lower, 5-cent sales tax last time. Maybe next time we’ll be the majority and finally get some tax relief! Since the Board just re-imposed the highest legal Mil-rate on our sky-high property taxes, it’s apparent they don’t hear us. I guess it’s up to us!

Agree 100% Pete and we may not have to wait for the next election. Because they clearly failed to follow the law, do their job and pick a replacement, they are guilty of dereliction of duty. In the military that’s a court martial offense. Under Wyoming Law, they can all be removed from office for collusion/complicity in a “failure to perform their appointed duty” plan. And all evidence points to a pre-planned and pre-meditated attempt to subvert the law. They clearly failed at their job. The good news is, they can always “do the right thing”…..at least until their removal.
