    If people keep voting to pay less taxes there will be cuts to all these services. Most people want everything, but don’t want to pay for it. Where do you think the money comes from?

    My thanks to our wonderful fire department here in Molino! They do a great job and deserve so much more thanks than they get! We would be in bad shape without them!

    I hope budget cuts don’t reduce the services of our wonderful volunteer fire departments.
