Aired April 01, 2010
An agency that isn’t accountable to the public, and has an unmatched record for wasting tax dollars, should not be given such a huge increase.

If approved, county tax dollars for Metro would go from about $80 million to about $160 million a year. This would be the third sales tax for Metro and the third sales tax increase in three years in St. Louis County.

This comes at a time when many families are already struggling to make ends meet.
