Scal, the make-believe mayor wants to talk history -- so let's talk about his.

He supported the Warwick City Council's FY18 budget decisions, which included a tax rate that stayed the same [meaning it was not cut], spending that went up by $6.5 million [meaning it was not cut], and an unrealistic 99-percent tax collection rate.

In fact, as I'm sure you recall, he claimed that his losing 2016 campaign influenced these decisions by the city council.

Over the last several weeks, he has done everything he can to keep claiming credit for the FY18 budget despite the fact that it led directly to the FY19 budget's maximum-allowed tax increase.

When he talks about how things are "sold to the voters," he is completely oblivious [willingly so] to how poorly he has sold his own candidacy -- and as you correctly note, he's been at this for four years and done nothing but regurgitate his pathetic slogans.

And that's in addition to the fallacies that he is still desperately trying to peddle on this website, that cutting taxes and giving away city funds will increase revenue.

Thanks for showing readers that the make-believe mayor has as much understanding of state issues as he does of city issues: None.
