City Oppression Continues

From the CT Article: Cities Work to Acquire Properties

This article deals with what Mr. Ordat was doing concerning abandoned property.

“We want to get them back on the tax rolls and we don’t want to have to maintain them,” Oradat said. “…We as a city are not interested in taking anybody’s property. We are interested in people being responsible to maintain their properties and to pay their property taxes.”

This statement shows the absolute Elitist attitude in our local government. Mr. Ordat considers the unemployed as being irresponsible in not maintaining their abandoned properties.

We the hungry, know you eat first. Properties are dime a dozen out there. They are hard to sell. The empty houses are testimony of the America of the past, before free trade and global collusion brought us to our knees. Yet, this mayor is first concerned with how our city looks, and the it is obvious that in the eyes of our leaders, the hungry can be damned.

Wayne Says from the CT article:

"Mayor Wayne Seybold said earlier this week that the project is a new step for the county to be more aggressive in collecting property taxes. A study indicated only 91 percent of property taxes were collected for the city of Marion in 2009 — down from 95 percent in 2008."

I say:

We have the worst and most oppressive government in the history of Marion. We needs less government, not more taxes. We need jobs not lies about jobs. The message I have shared for years still holds our true deliverance: "Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at Hand."

Personally , I do believe God will help the poor in Marion. However I do not see our local government as playing any part in the help of the poor. You can't help those you deny exist.
