The Daily Times Gets Tax Breaks They Don't Deserve

"Hi Joe, the times got the enterprise zone tax break for the building that houses the printing press, they do not use"

Even though the Daily Times has laid off close to 80% of their former Staff, even though they're not using the printing press and keeping jobs in Salisbury, even though they don't even own the building they're located in, your City Council and Mayor find it necessary to subsidize a dying business.

Look, it's as simple as this, NO! Try it mayor and Council. Oh, that's right, Ireton is a democrat and a Teacher, they don't understand the word NO.

Only in Salisbury and Wicomico County do we REWARD businesses that drop by 80% and know  they're going to fail. Those tax reliefs are supposed to be for businesses expanding and growing, building the local economic and development.

At least in the case of the city approving the request is really required by the state. Watch lasdt Monday night's council meeting. If anyone can argue the point legally after hearing the response from Wilber, please do. It appears that this is not a matter of choice for the city.

Are you kidding?
Do you think the city would kick the slats out from under their propaganda tool?
The DT is much too vital, not only to the Three Stooges in Salisbury, but to Ricky, too.

Keep attacking the teachers. They're all leeches on society anyway.
