I think communism and socialism are bad because I lived it.
99% of anti-communism is “I believe communism is bad because I was told to believe communism is bad.”

"The current budget proposal is unacceptable. Stop cutting EMS, fire, and other basic services. I do not consent to the use of my tax dollars for irresponsible NGO pet projects that have worsened homelessness, drug use, and led to greenbelt destruction. I demand an audit NOW!"

Austin voters rejected Prop Q 67–34. So why is City Hall using the Prop Q budget as the baseline? There’s no $110M “cut” - the revenue never existed. Start from FY24–25 + base cost drivers. Protect core services. Stop fear tactics. Let’s budget in public.

Why I'm against Prop Q: Austin’s priorities are drifting, and it’s harder than ever to cut through the noise and find the truth. What I’ve uncovered over the last few months is a city government that’s lost sight of its people. On the face of it, I see a manufactured crisis to

Resolution of the Barton Hills Neighborhood Association Opposing Proposition Q Tax Rate Election 👇 According to an attendee, the discussion was back and forth yet the vote was overwhelming. Do like Barton Hills. Vote against Prop Q.

Absolutely outrageous
While our council asks for more $$ from a stretched taxpayer, they jet off to Japan, with staff, to celebrate … sister cities. Here’s another reason to vote NO on Prop Q. @austintexasgov @VanessaForATX @ToddJeffries @AustinJustice @JenRobichaux

Our City Council says there's nothing they can do to prevent a tax rate increase. They're asking for our help. You could cut something from your personal budget... Or vote against Prop Q and insist that the city of Austin lives within our means. Vote No on Prop Q, Austin!

City of Austin has $29,805,936 in ACTIVE contracts to these organizations, which in turn have contributed $42K to the Love Austin PAC. Mind you, the budget shortfall that's prompted the Tax Rate Election is $33M, and the city is asking for $110M from us. Contract details 🧵
Several non-profits have contributed a total of $42K to the Love Austin PAC. According to federal regulations, 501c(3) organizations are not allowed to make political contributions to candidates. Can anyone clarify for me if contributing to a ballot issue is also prohibited?
