We couldn't agree more with Mr. Briggs. After all, I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside. Give them a sense of pride to make it easier. Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be.
It's all about the children. Always has been, always will be. In fact, Mr. Briggs is all about $45 million from NYPA for the children, to be distributed to three school districts within the county, including Niagara Falls. Never mind that the district already gets about $1.3 mil from the Power Authority, it's all about the children.
Board member Johnny Destino is quoted as saying, "Three million dollars would equal an immediate 12 percent reduction for taxpayers." That doesn't seem like it's about the children, unless he means me, considering I am little more than a grown child. Let's keep it focused on the children, Johnny, because after all, it's all about the children. Not the taxpayers, not the district, not the buildings; the children. Stay focused.
While I respect Mr. Briggs' desire to help the children, I believe he is neglecting one key demographic: pets. Where is the money for pets? My pets have never gotten a damn thing from NYPA. When NYPA built the Niagara Power Project, not only were many families displaced, but many pets were too. And we all know that it is difficult for pets to adapt to new surroundings. The emotional toll on pets is often overlooked and underestimated. It's time. We demand reparations from the New York Power Authority for the pain and suffering inflicted upon the pets of this community, and their ancestors, from NYPA!
After all, it's all about the children! AND the pets!
