Irrespective of the state where Leftist controlled universities and colleges exist, most states suffer from the inadequate "education" that is provided in so many of the curriculums available to so many students, so poorly educated, at such a great expense to their families and, or, we the taxpayers.

It is truly a shame and must change. Thank God for the Trump administration at least trying to guide "higher learning" to a far more effective existence.

Van Zant: Those deep into that whole public school motif do love them some "cheerleaders."

History and Civics: These two subjects are some of the most important information to prepare young minds, who will need to shield their conscious awareness from the indoctrination of PHDs from the collegiate power of higher learning, many of which are failing in their mandate to educate.

True enough Countrygirl1411, and it has always been that way. The oldest tax ever instituted in these United States.

With the Beaufort County revaluation a major topic everywhere I go here in Beaufort County, and I am ever at the ready to discuss the revaluation and other county issues relative to my functionary duties as a county commissioner at any time, I can definitively tell the public of this public square this one truth: The new unneeded school using mostly "Free Money" NOW in these costly days of building, which could have been available later for more worthy, more cost effective and necessary projects, coupled with the half million dollars to save the project because the administration of Beaufort County chose not plan properly, is NOT going over well with the public at large across this county of Beaufort.

As public officials wasting tax dollars is being found out, maybe the taxpayers one day, at large, will have the gumption to make the time to know what is truly occurring in their local governments, know the poor players working on their behalf, and, accordingly, the political interlopers who do NOT function as governing officials as they held themselves out to be ... And then maybe, just maybe, the self-governed folks of Beaufort County will provide me smarter county commissioners to serve with, and a real governing school board of knowledge, who, like the smarter county commissioners, can then hire better bureaucrats who know their place, and they know too who they ultimately serve - the self governed taxpayers of this county.

These non patriot fools in New York did incredibly practice lawfare, so ruthlessly, against Candidate Donald Trump as to destroy his candidacy and his family's business, that he then successfully counteracted their evil force of terrible intent against them to inspiringly take back the presidency, and thus begin the process to save America from the likes of these "Democratic" Demons.

Far too many Democratic Socialist lawyers in New York City, who hate America, contritutes mightily to New York being the most corrupt state in this Constitutional Republic.

This is why we must have patriotic and intelligent presidents; not corrupt, ignorant, not patriot presidents like Joe Biden.

Van Zant: If anyone deserves the right to be publicly angry with these intellectually deprived members of the Center-Left Coalition, it is me; however, I am honor bound to do the People's business during these public meetings, and I shall never "grind my personal /business axe" on the People's time.

John: You have struck the anvil hard with the perfect hammer of truth.

I hope someday soon our paths may cross, and we may together form a consensus of strength to forge the proper path forward the better truth that lights the way toward the reward of spiritual prosperity.

borderhawk: It does appear that the 2.0 version of Big Bob does find rounding up cartels and the like, illegally upon our sovereign soil to be unquestionably racist, as does Speaker Non Patriot Pelosi.

Van Zant: What happens in Beaufort County, here in the age of DOGE, will be a fine indicator of who should stay elected, and who should be shunned as a political pariah.

There has existed a huge pattern of theft for many decades, where the Non Patriot Left originates massive useless programs that predominately benefit Democratic Socialist's constituents, where Democratic Socialist politicians get kickbacks from the Non Patriot Leftist benefactors, all of which is felony fraud.

Hopefully, DOGE will cast a bright light on this Democratic Socialist /Non Patriot fraud that is directly paid for by all taxpayers, where these Non Patriots will finally find the interior walls of jails as their long term homes.

All criminals must be taken off the streets.

In my knowledgeable attempt to make the truth of Revaluation known to the public at large: Revaluation is an exercise that must be performed at least every 8 years as per the North Carolina Machinery Act, which perfectly stipulates how it must be done.

Due to the cost of the Revaluation, Beaufort County's practice has been to performs this every 8 years, which creates sticker shock for the public, even myself as I own property that demands that I pay my taxes, which most years always seems to be a struggle no matter how diligently I work to do so. Many of you out there are in my same situation as we grow older, and with the many responsibilities we encounter to sustain ourselves.

Having said all of this, please be aware of this one inescapable truth, Beaufort County is a Revenue Neutral County, and whatever the collective rise in average property values is calculated to be, thereby the tax rate of Beaufort County should be lowered accordingly.

With this reality understood, Beaufort County government, an entity that has the constitutional and statutory ability to correct the inconsistencies of a Revaluation in specific, and sometimes general instances, has no other ability to stop the Revaluation as prescribed by the North Carolina Machinery Act.

Besides, remedying the inaccuracies within the mistakes of any Revaluation, which will always be a certainty, the only power, and it is an awesome power, of
your Beaufort County Commissioners is the power of taxation, i.e., the tax rate levied as a lien against all real property here in the county of Beaufort.

Concerned Taxpayer: As a conservative county commissioner for 27 years, governing here in Beaufort County to the best of my ability to that level I am allowed, I have often been surrounded by an inescapable level of incompetence; however, currently that level of incompetence is at a all time high, here in my 27 years of serving the good people of Beaufort County, and as I am well entrenched in the Conservative minority, I powerless to stop it.

Good people of Beaufort County, please elect me, nay, all of us, more competent, smarter commissioners to govern with.

Hood: Unless you can goad these commissioners into doing the right thing, these Center-Left Coalition members (those who swap votes to share power on the Beaufort County Commission) will vote against you every time.

But Van Zant!

It's Free Money!

However, you know what, Van Zant: I have had two long pissed off phone calls today with folks angry about their property revaluations, and what I discerned from those calls is that they are not overly concerned about using huge amounts of the county treasury to chase down FREE MONEY.

Believe it or not, it is usually a good thing when the voting public wakes up enough to get angry about an issue that is a real issue.

This whole sorry event was painful to watch.

It tore out a piece of my heart today to see the chance of peace ruined in plain sight.

Why did the President of Ukraine NOT realize that the Idiot President is comatose in Delaware; Mr. Trump is a real American president; JD Vance is a popular Vice President; these guys DO NOT play?
