County tax dollars should be accounted for when spent

To the Editor,

Why would anyone be skeptical of the Robeson County commissioners motives? After all they reluctantly decided to “study” their compensation and benefits package and have in the interim decided to no longer be the only commissioners in the state with a deferred compensation plan. If we have commissioners who are unaware of their own perks, how can they spend our tax monies in a manner that will benefit one of the poorest counties in North Carolina?

Initially, the commissioners didn’t want to consider any change to their discretionary fund, which The Robesonian tells us they are now looking at. I, personally, want my tax dollars to be accounted for and the Robeson County commissioners to act as a body in how they are spent.

That is all we want as taxpayers. Honesty and integrity. First, DO NOT re-elect Tom Taylor. That will be a start. Put someone that is not corrupt in his place and that will bust up the gang of thieves. The Robesonian needs to keep the fire burning on the Commissioners and their dirty deals. Save the County from the thieves that are running it.
