Are You Better Off Now Than You Were Two Years Ago?

A letter on the need for better access to public records:

I fully support the need for complete transparency in government and the public's ability to easily and cheaply obtain public information. Converting all public records to electronic documents is the way to go.

Before you vote on Nov. 4, please ask yourself these questions (borrowed from President Reagan) "Are you better off than you were two years ago?" and "Is our state better off then it was two years ago?" If the answer to either of these is "no", then please vote for all new people at the Federal, State and Local level to represent you. We need some new faces and fresh ideas in the US Senate, US Congress, State government and on our Town Council & School Committee. Remember, in a democracy the people get the government they deserve. I think we deserve better, so vote for change.
