I don't wait for disaster to give, I fight hunger every time I go to the grocery. By buying at least one extra item for the food bank I fight hunger every week."

tax sprawl. small communities cost more per capita. if a community doesn't want to share services with their neighbors then they should pay additional for this luxury not ask for additional state aid. also new housing developments never pay for the long term cost of damage to the environment, water, wildlife. urban areas are more sustainable and should not be asked to subsidize the sprawl any more."
