Jerry, I didn't intend my post to be facetious. I placed it as a question here as it's the only thread about District 4. I see a lot of the local politics as people promising to bring money from the state or federal .gov, and others asking for the same for their specific project/situation. As I'm new in the community I was curious if that was the extent of local politics.
My personal ideology is a dislike for a centralized .gov (federal and state) and looking more heavily on what we can do in the community (where I think the power of government should be). I realize with the top heavy (most joe-six-pack pay the majority of their taxes to the federal government) tax burden system this may not be realistic in affecting day to day life, but was curious if any District 4 candidates (or even any Puna candidates) where giving any thought to this.
