I have had the pleasure these past few weeks to talk to lots of people, some door-to-door, about our temporary ½-cent sales tax, Measure U. The response has been very positive.  Some heartily endorse the measure, agreeing that to keep current services intact that additional revenue is needed for our city. But not everyone favors this tax and they have their reasons and they are happy to share them with me. The “I pay enough taxes already,” is the most frequent reason given for resisting any new tax. I think they are surprised when I agree with them.

Years ago, my father told me, “Son, there are many things you can do with your life to earn a living. But the trick to a good job, one that you are happy with, is doing something that you find interesting and personally rewarding. If you do that and stick with it, you might not make millions, but you will live a happy and fulfilling life.”
