Too many people have designs on our money

On Feb. 11 the Daily Bee ran a big front page article about the disaster that will befall us if the school levy does not pass. That article contained all the doom and gloom anyone would care to read. Not surprisingly, it is very much like other such articles printed in recent years for all the other levies we have been subjected to.  

Coincidentally, on that same front page there was another big article announcing plans by Bonner County officials to float their own levy for the construction of a new juvenile detention facility.

So, if you support the school levy and if it should fail, take heart, you may yet get a chance to do something for the children by approving the county’s measure.

Seems there is no lack of people and organizations with designs on our money.
