Beaver Island Michigan

The post by beaverisle was an insult to the hard working volunteers that serve on the school board. There was no intent to initiate a debate. When you make a post like this under an alias you deserve to be treated in kind.

You can't make a better investment of tax dollars than money spent on anything that encourages students to take pride in their school.

nepotism  [( nep -uh-tiz-uhm)]

Favoritism granted to relatives or close friends, without regard to their merit.

It sounds like they are suggesting nepotism to me.

There's a lot more to being a custodian than cleaning toilets.

The fifth commandment is also confusing. Should a little girl that is molested by her drug addict father honor him? If she doesn't will she go to hell?

The spotty AT&T cell service isn't just an inconvenience, its a safety issue.

To address this we have the extraordinary circumstance of a Democratic president that has offered to put entitlements on the table if the Republican side is willing to close some tax loopholes and end the Bush tax cuts for those families that earn more tha...

The same obscenely rich people that fund the super pacs to get their hand picked Republican candidates elected also fund a propaganda machine to discredit any threat to their sweetheart tax breaks. They pay people to blanket the media with phony information like this that motivates well meaning but ...

The taxes for my seasonal hunting camp on BI are $4,744. This is the best investment Iâ??ve made in my life. Stocks go up and down and all you have to show for them are a piece of paper. Then when you cash them in you still have to pay tax. I hope to pass this investment/property on to my children a...

JUst what I was afraid of, I've been dead for a year.

AEW, just because you hear something on FOX News doesn't make it a fact. You and your gullible lemming friends are welcome to let yourselves be used as puppets for the rich. I choose to believe scientists, economists and legitimate mainstream journalists.
