9. Maybe we homeowners wouldn't be such

cheapskates if we did not see exorbitant rate hikes on our property taxes and utilities. You must not be a homeowner or you would know that utility companies have been hiking fees every year for upgrades that they have failed to deliver.

Now I do not mind paying if it is for the greater good of the community. But I sure as hell am tired of getting hit with property tax increases. Then double digit hikes going to utility companies and getting half ass upgrades in return. In the meantime they lay off ground workers and give themselves bonuses.

These politicians and companies have some explaining to do to a lot of angry people. These politicians were paid off to approve these rate hikes, we paid, and the goods weren't delivered. If meaning I want what I paid for then yes I am one hell of a cheapskate.

BTW, based on your analogy I guess the United States should never have bothered bringing plumbing and electricity throughout the country. Every homeowner should have just built their own plumbing system and wired their homes themselves.

This is the new way of thinking? No wonder this country is so behind in our infrastructure and wiring. I guess next you would tell everyone to build their own train system or run their own bus service to get to work.
