"Just Say No" has been a popular phrase to keep young people away from using drugs.
However, this phrase is also a very appropriate response to encourage the Bethel Park School Board to "Just Say No" to any further spending of our taxpayer dollars.
As a matter of fact, it is crucial that the board cut out some of the spending now, in order to balance the present budget, which is in its preliminary stage for 2011-2012.
The projected revenue for this budget is $72,991,459.00, but the projected expenditures total $74,303,447.00. Simple subtraction tells us that this budget is about $1.3M in the red.
There is no money in our Keystone State to reimburse Bethel Park schools or any other school district in Pennsylvania Bethel Park 's loss from state reimbursement is over a million dollars.
If the former governor and administration could have "just said no" to spending, the forecast would not have been so bleak.
Overtaxation ruins a nation. In Bethel Park , "Just Say No."
