'Only an idiot' would argue against a 'very affordable' tax
As for the city councilman who said ``only an idiot would vote himself a tax increase,'' I would counter that by saying only an idiot would argue against a very affordable, temporary tax that would solve so many problems.
WE are living in an age of selfishness, and as such, the majority of people want to pay as little tax as possible either on income or as local rates or whatever.
