A friend emailed: your parcel and per capita numbers about Janesville school district referenda are not accurate because the district includes other townships and populations. Be my guest to post the population and parcels covered in the JSD. The more accuracy, the better.
Janesville needs a mayor and a city council representative of its neighborhoods. Regular people. Not ego-serving, rent seeking tools of a privileged bubble-ish agenda.
The sale price for 12 packs of coke in a local flyer is 2 for $18. I've always wanted to cut pop out of my routine, now is a good time. Besides, the stuff is bad for good health.
In Janesville's anti-democracy sundown town era gerry-rigged at-large city council elections, the three candidates that lost split a total of 8,206 votes. The candidate that won the open seat collected only 4,578.
What will this mean for Janesville residents? A steady march for increased property taxes so the banksters on the board can enrich their partner's portfolios under the guise of community progress. x.com/realjanesville…

It appears that the single-track rubberstamping Forward Janesville run city council of the past has become an even more single-track rubberstamping Forward Janesville run city council after the recent election. In case anyone thought that was not possible.
Here is a recent property tax survey ranking by state from Rocket Mortgage. Wisconsin ranks 44th worst from 51 (including DC) meaning only 7 states are higher. rocketmortgage.com/learn/property…
I would like to see MacIver Institute, WILL or the Wisconsin Policy Forum do a story titled, "Property Taxes On The Rise: Wisconsin Cities Using Their Primary Development Tool Only To Increase Budgets"
I guess Janesville residents aren't tired of hearing the same old promises about TIF Districts and economic development. The latest word now is don't expect any immediate payback or relief. The city council president said rewards will come in 50 to 100 years. 😱
State legislators, "How can we give our best, richest donors major property tax relief that, at the same time, gives local bureaucrats the incentive to raise their administration budgets annually? TIF Districts!
Here is a chart from TIF District propagandist, Ehlers Inc, on the amounts each taxing body will receive if a new Janesville TIF District goes as promised. Keep in mind that district tax payments stay in the district. Who pays this every year?
One of the grifters on FB defending the $169 million tax hike referendum proposed by the Janesville school district says it will only cost 69¢ a day or a cup of coffee. At $2,560 per capita, that's 3,710 cups of coffee per person. Oh well that's better. 🫤
Have you ever wondered why Janesville local media, the City and school districts have their comment sections turned off on their Web Sites and videos, but post on social media. Then refuse to acknowledge social media as the real town square and bash it as illegitimate.
I keep seeing articles about potential new housing and apartment building developments in Wisconsin communities as if it is free market activity (without major subsidies and/or TID). Or are they simply keeping the details hidden because residents know TIDs are taxroll deadzones.

@gardMKE The questions to ask…1. Are munis competing against one another for corps headquarters, are we simply moving furniture around regionally at tax payer expense? 2. Why are RE development incentives different, why does the public have to derisk that industry’s ambition versus…
I will always be baffled why every single time there is a protest the media treats it like an event we’ve never seen before. I can’t even count on both hands the number of protests I’ve seen in my life time, never mind the historical protests we all know about
@RealJanesville or the local tyrants rig elections and the people let them. one way or the other.. it all comes back to WE THE PEOPLE ALLOWING IT because WE THE PEOPLE allow them to divide us.
@RealJanesville and while it might be a boon to nearby businesses, how does that help the taxpayers? Especially if said businesses are in a TIF..you know, it isn't old families, dems, gop that are the enemies.. it's flat out ignorance. and apathy
I've hesitated to post about this. Near my house, a slow motion race has been happening between a group trying to get historic designation for a unique neighborhood here in Beloit. On the other side was Diane Hendricks, who wants to buy adjacent lots for a sports field...
@RealJanesville sort of like me buying bigger pants every time I put on weight? I pull out the waistband and say, no, see, still lots of room. both are lies and both are harmful to me. See, ya just gotta 'splain' it so I get it.
@ob_cycler @USPS You have to be crazy to share the road with cars going 55+
“Inflation is made in Washington and no where else.” We live in a world where nobody addresses or even discusses the actual problem. Overspending, borrowing, and printing is what creates #inflation. But, we won't even consider fixing the cause itself.
The financial struggles of Houston and the cities of the Silicon Valley area have the same underlying cause. Rapid horizontal expansion of cities gives the local gov't lots of cash today. In exchange, they promise to service and maintain vast areas. This math doesn't work. 4/
Houston is broke, but so are some of the richest cities in Silicon Valley. What do they have in common? Not politics. Not governance. It's the development pattern. The way they build their places has made them insolvent. 1/
Talking about things as though they are a matter of fact, rather than a choice is exactly how we got here.
"China is now simply too large for the rest of the world to absorb this enormous capacity." I used to say that outsourcing our entire manufacutring base to China was a bad idea, but I was told that those jobs were going to be automated away anyway.
@RealJanesville They're not just keeping grocery stores out of the southside, they're keeping competitors away from Woodmans. I jumped for joy the other day when I got bread, butter and eggs cheaper at kwiktrip than woodman's prices. Sign up for their rewards program.
@RealJanesville Marv Munyon-I asked people if ignorance or apathy was the biggest problem with the US today. The resounding answer.. I don't know and I don't care.
@RealJanesville 'stinkers' is far kinder of a word than I would have used. After hearing Oakleigh Ryan compare her husbnd Tobyn to Jesus, yea done. and when you see the properties they apparently own downtown. well can't say they're doing anything illegal, but only a moron wouldn't be suspicious
@RealJanesville @GovEvers i've seen McCoshen's twitter posts on sports subject, something I know less than nothing about. But, but boy, I sure can pick up on the arrogant 'I'm better than you or anyone else' vibe.
@RealJanesville @GovEvers The whole icearena is a testament to the fact that there are NOT 2 political parties, there is one uniparty that is out to destroy this country and it's citizens. Janesville Jets owners, led by GOPer Bill Mccoshen and Evers prove this.
@GovEvers I find the government involving itself in the private endeavors of the free market to be problematic. If this were a worthy venture Woodman's would be able to raise the necessary capital to complete the project without government putting their thumb on the scale.
@ChrisJLarson @MoveOn Excuse me, but now you’re promoting tax the rich for public education, after you endorsed the MPS referendum? So many poor and seniors are scrambling how they’re going to afford the increase. So many will have to move.
I love how “fund your own damn ballpark” is never even on the table for sports team owners who’re some of America’s wealthiest individuals. kmbc.com/article/wife-o…
