County Board charity donations are wrong!

Monday, December 15th, 2008

The Brevard County Board is considering donating nearly $1 million to local charities.  This is wrong.  We pay taxes to the county for the running of the county not for charity donations!

I have no problem with any of the charities.  I even donated to one of them myself.  The problem is the County Board making charitiable donations on my behalf.  Spending money on good causes other than for the purpose for which it is collected is still misappropriation of funds.
