text: With our tax and spend city government that has been established and is run by public employees who are on the receiving end of the fines fees taxes and utility charges that are levied on us, the price to live here just keeps going up. Non government jobs are becoming either very low pay or disappearing. The housing boom is over. The projects that were state funded during high oil prices are finishing up. So construction workers are being laid off. Oil field workers are being laid off as they finish projects funded before oil prices dropped. The smaller PFDs are bringing fewer immigrants. Every jobless person affects several service sector jobs. The city taxed us to the cap, and raised the fines for traffic and related violations, they are raising electric rates 30%, increasing 911 surcharge, raised parking meter rates, permitting for home improvements cost at times more than the improvements, the list goes on. Many ways to take any money left that is not part of the tax cap. Lovely.
