Ed, I’m calling about the homeless man in Hamilton who was beaten up by a juvenile. As a Hamilton resident and taxpayer, I want to know why isn’t something done by Hamilton for these poor homeless people, like put them in a facility where they will be safe. Not all homeless people are bad; maybe they’ve had bad luck, or they have no family, or they are sick. As a taxpayer I’d be happy and willing to let my tax dollars be used for this purpose, and I think most other people would agree.

Tax me, please

Yeah, just what a politician wants to hear: “As a taxpayer I’d be happy and willing to let my tax dollars be used for this purpose.” You keep up the good work and you’ll be signing over your entire paycheck before you know it.
