  • This article cherry-picked some of his words, but ultimately he is against wealthy corporations not paying their fair share through tax exeption deals. He is not against funding public education. But of course, take the corporation-backed mainstream-media message at face value and hope he gets bullied away. Then the current township leaders can continue handouts to big corporations, while increasing taxes on the residents.

    Did you know that in recent years the Township Committee under both political parties has awarded over $150 million in 30-year tax exemptions to billionaire developers at 750 Walnut and Birchwood?

    We residents have to pay for this on their behalf. It’s a few thousand dollars every year in extra taxes per household. In return, we receive little besides increased traffic, flooding, overcrowded schools, and overburdened infrastructure.

    Indeed the $55 million we voted to pay for our beloved schools in the January referendum was necessary precisely because the developers are contributing nothing to our educational system. I want to be elected to stop the resident-funded overdevelopment of Cranford.

  • He’s upset that wealthy corporations aren’t paying their fair share and residents are being forced to pick up the tab. He’s running for an elected position in his township to combat this and appears consistent on his message.

    Also, he isn’t campaigning against funding the education system. Again, he just wants developers to chip in too.

  • Article is paywalled, so thanks for posting the actual study. This section seems in direct conflict with the article’s title:

    Given the … clear evidence that the epicenter of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic was at one of only four markets in Wuhan that sold live wildlife from plausible intermediate host mammal species, either the closest-inferred ancestor or the direct ancestor of SARS-CoV-2 likely moved from an area in or around Yunnan province, to Hubei province, via the wild and farmed animal trade.

    In sum, the study doesn’t challenge that Covid-19 originated in Wuhan; but instead, explores the genetic backgrounds of the bats with the closest links to Covid-19.
