our support for Costco and Westfield is sickening... and I sincerely hope you redirect your priorities to do what is right for this county. Costco and Westfield will do just fine without MoCo Government taking money from our libraries, schools, roads, etc. and giving it to them. And who knew you were so pro business subsidy. If I had known you would vote for this kind of corporate largess I would never have voted for you... and I will not again if you vote yes. Count on it. I will also become a very vocal anti-Floreen constituent. This county has got to start putting the health and welfare of its citizens first before the welfare of corporate America.
