Friszolowski comments no major surprise

 

Editor:

It’s no surprise that Ward Friszolowski is speaking out against Florida Hometown Democracy Amendment 4, as he did in Bob McClure’s July 6 story.These politicians will say anything to keep regular people from getting a say in all their dealings. I support Hometown Democracy Amendment 4, and I’ll tell you why. Our homes and communities are too important to leave in the hands of politicians and lobbyists. Since we taxpayers pay the cost of these speculative real estate ventures that politicians keep approving – the roads, schools, sewer, water, etc. – we should get a vote.
 
Amendment 4 is a common-sense reform that will add accountability to a political system that’s gotten unbelievably corrupt and out of control. It is not the same process that was tried in St. Pete Beach.


The fat cats will make all kinds of claims to get you to deny yourself the right to vote. We don’t have their kind of money and spin, but we do have the right to stand up and be counted by voting yes on Amendment 4 on the statewide ballot on Nov. 2.

Hometown Democracy is a nonpartisan, truly grassroots citizen’s movement, and you can learn more by going to our Web site www.floridahometowndemocracy.com
