Editor,
So I see Marvin Jones is opposing Measure T because he believes that taxpayers are being asked too much.
Interesting that Mr. Jones is one of the biggest supporters for for having taxpayers pay billions and billion and billions of dollars on the war in Iraq. For me, I am going to vote yes on Measure T because the small amount of tax I would pay would help fight crime right here in Hollister where it is needed.
The amount of extra tax that I will pay is well worth the value I will receive knowing that we will have a chance of reducing gang violence right here in Hollister. And the small amount of extra tax that I will pay more than justifies the security I will feel feel knowing we will have a safer community.
For me, Measure T will produce a much greater return in providing a safe environment than the billions I am spending on the war in Iraq.
