Funny, it is the opposite here. It is the 'over 65' crowd who constantly vote down town budgets and demand that the Education Department go back and find places to cut so their taxes will not be raised needlessly. Funny how these same people happily put their own kids through school and demanded good schools... now when they are "good" and people move to town because the schools are good, they want to cut the school budget so that services are slashed. Think they would feel the same if we, the parents in town, demanded the senior center budget be slashed?
