Question Everything
http://questeverything.blogspot.com/
Discussing issues and policies at the local government level:
This is an effort to give people another opportunity to engage in the debate on the issues of the day. Debate is, "to discuss or examine a question by considering or stating different arguments." To ensure the give and take of debate this blog has one rule--Answer a question and you get to ask one. You must state at least one reason to support your position. I hope that through reasoned discourse solutions will emerge.
