I strongly urge the voters of Colorado to reject Referendum C, or any action that would suspend Colorado's Taxpayers Bill of Rights.

It is the only thing that will reduce out-of-control government spending. Milton Friedman American Economist More Milton Friedman Quotes 0

And, in fact, there is some chance that it may make matters even worse. Ted Carpenter More Ted Carpenter Quotes 0
We are in tough shape here. Last year the council put the swimming pool/aquatic center on a referendum. The community responded overwhelmingly to approve financing a $1.5 million pool complex.
