Ok, First of all Im not taking anything personal, I just dont want to pay higher taxes. And paying higher taxes does nothing but hurt the middle and lower class. So I will speak on their behalf since everybody else is for higher taxes. 2nd, just because it cost more in other countries doesnt mean we need to match them. Gas is a rip off no matter if its 3.00 pg or 10.00 pg. 3rd I thought about other ways to get to or from work. Lets go down that list....
Bus or Trax..........do they run after midnight since I dont get off work til 3:30 am? Nope. Wish they would.
Walking......west jordan to the airport, that would be a long walk.
Carpooling......The only person I could think of who lives near by doesnt work the same hours as me.
Moving closer.......Most likely what Im going to have to do. Theres alot of areas near the airport that Im not too sure if I want to raise my kids in. Also dont really want to be the only english speaking person on my street. Not a big fan of Rose park, Glendale and west valley. But I might be force to live in the ghetto if gas prices keep going up. ( Taxes or oil greed. )
Downtown would be a awesome place to live, but not sure if that really fixs with where we're at during this time. In other words, somthing under 200k have our own walls, more then two bedrooms and a backyard for the kids would be a plus. Dont think downtown has what Im looking for, but I could be wrong.
So anyways there you. I dont surport higher taxes.
