Various readers have written in to oppose the building of a new courthouse in Everett. You may add my name to that list.
We do not need a new courthouse, there’s nothing wrong with the one we have; further more, it’s a waste of money. Whose money? Guess! The taxes imposed on the citizenry are horrible! And to what end?
After sitting in on an issue described as a public hearing, elsewhere, I soon realized that the public really has no say; the issue in question had already been decided.
I thought the U. S. Constitution was supposed to be “of the people, by the people, for the people,” originally. What happened? The citizens really have no voice, it’s all a sham. Only the governments, from the top on down, have any say.
