As any Sterling property taxpayer possessing at least half a brain knows, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is a one-party DemocRAT HACK-O-RAMA, and Sterling Town Government, but for a few notable exceptions, is a microcosm Massachusetts DemocRAT HACK-O-RAMA. That fact was reaffirmed on 26 June 2024 when the fiscally out-of-control Wachusett Regional School District’s OUTRIGHT ASS-KISSING GUTLESS ASSCLOWNS constituting the current Sterling Select Board, in conjunction with new Town Moderator and former Sterling Select Board HACK, Richard Lane, teamed up to SHAFT all Sterling property taxpayers by rejecting the re-appointment of highly talented, honest, insightful, direct, blunt, no-nonsense, fiscally responsible George Handy to the Sterling Finance Committee. Pay close attention to all three Sterling Select Board Outright Gutless Incompetent Assclowns between minute 12:00 and minute 32:00–
YEAH, YEAH, I’m SURE that those POSTURING BUFFOONS did get a bunch of letters complaining about George Handy– all from WRSD School Committee members, WRSD administrators, WRSD employees, and parents of schoolkids with their hands out. Such letters are now “public records” and can be obtained by sending in a “public records request” in accordance with Mass.Gen.Laws Ch. 66, Sec. 10 if you want to find out who sent them and what they say.
It was George Handy, as Chair of the Sterling Finance Committee in FY 2024, who stood up for ALL Sterling property taxpayers by leading the charge to confront the WRSD’s OUTRAGEOUS FY 2025 $121.9 million budget request–up by $40 million since FY 2015 despite the 817 drop in total student enrollment since FY 2010, that enrollment drop being equivalent to 54.5 empty classrooms given the WRSD’s stated student-teacher ratio– opposing the WRSD’s requested appropriation above the Town of Sterling’s required net minimum contribution. Mr. Handy was instrumental in getting TWO (2) distinct WRSD appropriation Articles, in accordance with Sterling Annual Town Meeting Warrant historical practices through 2018, on the DRAFT 2024 Sterling Annual Town Meeting Warrant—one Article for Sterling’s required WRSD net minimum contribution and the other for the WRSD request above Sterling’s required net minimum contribution—only to have the WRSD’s Outright Gutless Assclown Panderers constituting the Sterling Select Board attempt to screw all Sterling property taxpayers by ignoring Sterling’s historical practices and consolidating the WRSD’s FY 2025 OUTRAGEOUS appropriations requests into ONE (1) Article on the FINAL 2024 Sterling Annual Town Meeting Warrant. That cowardly act backfired spectacularly– to the Select Board’s intense public embarrassment– during the 2024 Sterling Annual Town Meeting. F#CK THEM!!!
During FY 2024 Mr. Handy and the Finance Committee warned us that the out-of-control WRSD is pushing the Town of Sterling toward a Proposition 2 ½ property tax override vote. That warning was ignored by the Outright Stupid, Gutless, WRSD-Ass-Kissing Panderers constituting the Sterling Select Board. The danger of a Proposition 2 ½ property tax override vote will be enhanced greatly next year due to Sterling Select Board stupidity and gross incompetence
You get the Gutless, Dishonest, Self-Promoting, Preening, Smoke-Blowing, DUMBF#CK Town Government actors for whom you vote.
