Where's the 4th Qtr. Edison Property Tax Bills with November 1 due date?!?

Geez, I know it's an election year and all but Really?

Are they gonna send them out after the election?

Oh wait, I forgot - remember those 3rd Qtr. Estimated Property Tax Bills they sent out? Seems they understated the Muni tax by some 3.5-Cents - which they forgot to tell you about.

Now, you'll see that show up in the 4th Qtr. Property Tax Bill due November 1 - maybe that's why nobody has seen them yet.

Here, see how much more you'll be paying in this upcoming bill to cover their understating the Muni tax in the 3rd Qtr. Property Tax Bill:

Anyhoo, thanks Mayor Tom 'Now 24.1% but Won't Debate' ChoiLankey and your 7 Processing Clerks! And don't forget to Keep Voting for Democrats and Not Democracy on November 5th here in the 'DemBadLands' of Downtown Edison..

Looks like 'Better Schools Better Edison' won't be much help in Controlling Expenses over there on Mythomania Lane?!?

Well, easy to see why Jerry 'Needs to Step-down' Shi supports this group for the Edison Board of Education on November 5th.

Anyhoo, gotta watch all those media consulting expenditures.

Don't take your eye off that Idiotic, ill-conceived, Opaque, Piecemeal and Overpriced $189.5m Money Grab, aka School Bond Referendum

Take the time to get informed about Jerry 'Needs to Step-down' Shi and his band of architects vision of Mythomania Land - an Outrageous $312,772,719 for the next 30 years. And let's not forget, all done without a Permanent Super getting in the way or a Single New School.

You Really Gotta get a kick out of these Ridiculous Costs per Sq. Ft.:

You can go to the July 11, 2019 post and see all the costs for each of the six schools that they sent down to Trenton without you knowing.

Finally, you can go to the September 19 and 20, 2019 posts and see all the costs, including financing costs, - and what this ambush Will Cost You.

Be aware, if you approve this bond referendum, you will be authorizing them to increase the school tax levy by $269,164,093 and when they try and tell you that they might not $pend it all, remember this old line from the movie The Field of Dreams - 'if You Build it, They Will Come.'

In our case, if You give the Board of Hoarders $269,164,093, They Will $pend it.

And, by the way, don't forget the rush to hire a new super before the end of the year:

You might want to also remember this Senior Shi fairytale before you look at his $189.5m Money Grab:

Anyhoo, don't be fooled by their chicanery - take the time to inform yourself - tripling your current year's school tax increase for the next 30 years is a Tad Bit Too Much to Ask - even in the Land of Mythomania.

Top 10 Reasons why you gotta like the Rush for a New Super by Year-end over there on Mythomania Lane

10. Because you like that Jerry 'Needs to Step-down' Shi and his band of architects didn't want a New Super getting in the way of his $189.5m idiotic, opaque, ill-conceived, overpriced and unnecessarily burdensome plan that triples your last school tax increase for the next 30 years.

9. Because you like that the Board of Dysfunction could see up to one-third of their Silent club over there on Dysfunction Junction changing with this election and you don't want Senor Shi  to have to take any chances.

8. Because you like the Committee of the Whole thingie is still running around chasing themselves and we still don't know anything more about the 2017 Racist Flier.

7. Because you like that Board Members Ward and Brescher have both decided not to seek re-election and you want them to have a say about the future of the school district on their way out the door.

6. Because you like it that Senor Shi would most likely Not run for re-election and you want to make sure that he gets to pick something other than fights before he loses hold on his inept leadership.

5. Because you like it that they're still debating whether one of them can even participate in voting for a new Super due to conflicting advise on conflict of interests.

4. Because you like it that it wasn't important that we haven't had a full-time Super since 2018 but all of a sudden we need to have one right away and before the end of the year.

3. Because you like it that a new Super should have No Say in what's needed to correct the Overcrowding.

2. Because you like the Stench that Still Lingers Over this Town and believe that politics hasn't tainted school board elections over there on Dysfunction Function since we moved the School Board elections to November.

1. Because you don't see the need to first vote down that Ridiculous  December 10th Bond Referendum and have them do a major redo along with the input of a New Super next year.

Well, there you go - guess it's true what they say, when rats run out of food - they eat their own!

Well, saw this piece here in Tap into Edison and you really have to chuckle before you vomit. And you wonder why I refer to the Edison Board of Education as the Board of Mythomania?

Nah, there's no Politics over there on Mythomania Lane, aka Dysfunction Junction.

Geez, not for nothing but Bob 'See No Conflict' Diehl, aka Poster-Child for Term Limits and Suez 'Man of the Year' has been sniffing around that job for years so I'm not surprised that someone is recommending him for the spot.

But let's not be hypocritical here. Edison Board of Ed Prez Jerry 'Needs to Step-down' Shi and his Board of Silence are no strangers to letting politics infiltrate the School District by moving the School Board Elections to November. They took away Your Right to Vote on Bloated and Out-of-Control $pending School Budgets and you get the kind of mess this town is in now in return. Nice, isn't it?

Here, remember these guys before and after the 2017 election?

And who could forget their celebrating after the election?

And let's be honest about the 'Requirements' put forth for the Super job by the Board of Dysfunction.

They're as self-serving and disingenuous as can be when it comes to being open and honest. Remember before how we just absolutely had to have someone with a doctorate for Super?

Yeah, that worked out well with Super Dr. Richard 'Looking for the Exit Ramp' O'Malley, didn't it. Further, remember all those sophomoric 'Requirements' they come up with every year for a Super bonus? You can make most of them by just showing up for work.

So, whether Senor Diehl is the best candidate or not, you'll never know but let's not pretend that his position here in 'Downtown' Edison doesn't influence those here in the 'DemBadLands' of Downtown Edison to push for him.

And seriously, Dr. Chen - 'This is about our children, our schools, and there is no room for politics.' - Where have you been living? Guess you never speak with Jerry 'Needs to Step-down' Shi, do you?

Anyhoo, had enough of this town's stewardship on both sides of town yet?

Pay attention to the Board of Mythomania's New Super Hiring Practices

Well, looks like they start interviewing the finalists for the New Super over there on Mythomania Lane otherwise known as dysfunction junction.

You might want to notice the timing of it too boot. After Jerry 'Needs to Step-Down' Shi's idiotic $189.5m Money Grab resident/taxpayer ambush but before the end of the year.

Anyhoo, this is what you call being dumped on twice by a totally dysfunctional and disassociated school board. We can fix both these problems at election time - vote down the bond referendum and vote out all incumbents as they come up reelection.

Continuation of the Edison Committee of the Whole - still in search of themselves!?!

Well, look who finally showed up after 3 subpoenas- Sgt. Shultz, aka Jerry 'Needs to Step-down' Shi, the inept leader of the Edison Board of Mythomania.

Seems after claiming 4 of the Council Members had conflicts of interest and he wouldn't take questions from any of them and then reading an opening statement, while pointing to his own documents, that apparently no one else had a chance to see until the day of the meeting - it was just an I don't know, I don't remember etc., etc., etc.

Not for nothing but I thought it odd that he would include in his opening statement about the racist flier what a great job he was doing over there on Mythomania Lane. Seems the meeting was to find out what he knew about the flier and not what he claims to of done over there as leader of the Board of Mythomania.

But he did, so let's talk about his claims to fame.

Seems he's claiming that he $aved Millions through the elimination of waste, inefficiency and overcharging by vendors and that he has a plan to fix the overcrowding and bring back full-day kindergarten.

First thing you need to understand is that the Board of Education Never Saves Anything. They just repurpose. If they reduce one bloated expense, they just add it to another bloated expense. Nothing goes back to the taxpayer. 

In order to have a Savings, you would have to see a reduction in Your School Tax bill - and as long as I've lived in this town, the School Tax bills only went one way - Up every year.  Just typical Board of Education misdirection and misinformation for the uninformed. 

They Never Save Anything. They just Hoard Your Tax Relief Money and use it to increase their Bloated and Out-of-Control $pending year after year.

Second, under the inept and misguided leadership of Jerry Shi, they just put out this Most Ridiculous, ill-conceived, Grossly Overpriced, Opaque and ill-timed $189.5m Bond Referendum that Shi and his band of architects came up with all by their lonesome and without a full time Super in place. 

As it stands now, if you approve this $189.5m with a total gross cost of $312.8m on December 10th - You will be approving a $269,164,093 School Tax Levy which will triple what your school tax increase was this year, for the next 30 years. It's insanity run amok on the uninformed.

It's just a $189.5m Money Grab!

While Mr. Shi and his Board of Silence may try to keep you in the dark about what they're doing over there on Mythomania Lane, aren't you tired by now of all the waste and inefficiency and opaque transparancy over there and being treated as nothing more than a cash cow for a Board where no one has a seat at the table for decision-making purposes that represents the resident/taxpayers? 

You should be.

But I digress, so let's move on.

The Stench of that Racist Flier Still Lingers Over this Town after two years and the only way You're going to get rid of it is to get rid of all those elected officials on both sides of town at election time.

Anyhoo, jokes on you until You recognize You're being played by those who supposedly represent You.
