You will see  that all the Veteran organizations  have zero  salary.   Back  in the  olden  days , it was an  honor to get elected to the  school  board.  No  salary!!!     Now I see Lake County  board member  payments  budget almost   $1 million dollars  for  next year !!  –  And Lake County,   so desperate   that we are going to enjoy a 13%  increase in  our  taxes.    But this is a “good deal” cause  they  had a ” tax fire sale” – It was  proposed at 19%  increase,  but  reduced to only  13%  – ` Everyone  enjoys the “Bargain”   or did we all get “raped”??   The teachers union- Last  payment ,  by  American Federation  of Teachers  and the Florida Education Association  was $750,000  political  payout to “Charlie Christ”.    So  part  of your real estate taxes for schools,  is diverted from the  teachers, thru the Unions  to the Democrats , constantly.      I  never see teachers complaining  about this  loss  of wages !!!    Is  it fear of job discrimination  or is  it so easy  for  your  Lake County Commissioners  to add  more  taxes to your  real real estate   bill to  provide  super education.   Amazing– Florida ‘s  rapid  growth – added  real estate- sales taxes  are by seniors  over  55-  The school  busses do  not service  all these  seniors  locations- The just  pay  “big tax”  bill,  for no  education service,  cause your elected politicans  can  raise your tax bill by 13%    so  easy  –!!

: Donations

Who knew?  We need to think before we give.

And don’t forget Wounded Warriors !

YOU MAY WANT TO THINK BEFORE YOU DONATE

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS:

As you open your pockets to do a good thing and make yourself feel good, please keep the following facts in mind:

The American Red Cross President and CEO Marsha J. Evans’ salary for the year was $651,957 plus expenses

MARCH OF DIMES It is called the March of Dimes because only a dime for every 1 dollar is given to the needy.

The United Way President Brian Gallagher receives a $375,000 base salary along with numerous expense benefits.

UNICEF CEO Caryl M. Stern receives $1,200,000 per year (100k per month) plus all expenses including a ROLLS ROYCE. Less than 5 cents of your donated dollar goes to the cause.

GOODWILL CEO and owner Mark Curran profits $2.3 million a year. Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business.  You donate to his business and then he sells the items for PROFIT.  He pays nothing for his products and pays his workers minimum wage! Nice Guy. $0.00 goes to help anyone! STOP giving to this man.

Instead, give it to ANY OF THE FOLLOWING GO “GREEN” AND PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE IT WILL DO SOME GOOD:
