Romney is out for money and prestige

Manage the investment in our children.

Egg Harbor Township has the second highest tax rate in the county with 67 percent spent for our schools. We are at a point if we do not control costs and spending, our kids will have fewer choices. We need some creative solutions to “do more with less.”

To the editor:
Presidential candidate Mitt Romney just has not given the American public enough details to trust him with our country. Oh really?
Of course, in 2008, then presidential candidate Barack Obama gave us many details regarding his plans for America.
