The problem with our economy right now (the whole economy, not just Warwick), is that not only are housing prices decreasing but inflation is increasing. The Mayor and the council have to raise property taxes just to keep the same revenue coming in... at the same time, something normally purchased or maintained by the town is going up in costs.

Fuel alone raises the costs of doing business, plus RI is one of the highest taxed states in the country. We have a very high corporate tax rate that keeps businesses away, we have a very high income tax rate which forces people to move, and on top of that we have one of the highest sales tax which forces people to go to MA or CT to buy certain items.

None of that is the Mayor's or City Council's fault... the only way we can fix that is to stop electing the same group of people to state office who have lead us down the road of disaster. Specifically, if you want to fix this state we need Fox and his minions gone... so when you vote, vote for someone who promises not to select Fox for Speaker.
