		<description>It&#039;s hard to imagine what the above two commentators are thinking.

They apparently believe that maintaining a sustainable city isn&#039;t important.   The reference to Mill Hill is odd given that that neighborhood is one of the few middle class areas in the city.  

Perhaps the upshot is that Trenton should be left to the poor and doesn&#039;t need tax revenue.  Given that the State has grown weary of subsidizing Trenton&#039;s budget, lac of tax revenue will lead to a cut in services, notably police, which will further drive away the middle class (as it has for the last 30 years).

Is it arrogant to want better.  What&#039;s out of touch about wanting to preserve a decent society in Trenton.

The commentators seem like the very people who have supported Trenton&#039;s decline and would welcome its further decline through inattention to the city&#039;s fiscal state of affairs.

Our committee hopes to shine a light on the &quot;head in the sand&quot; approach many Trentonians have been taking towards our budget.  I&#039;ve let these &quot;un-signed&quot; comments be published as an example of the attitude responsible citizens need to repel.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m sure this was created by some Mill Hill people who are out of touch with Trenton and really think they are relevant. Just because a candidate didn&#039;t respond does not mean they don’t have clear positions and know it or don’t consider it a priority. That is so arrogant of you all to say that and to think that your recommendation for NOT considering someone matters..lol

(And check your site for typos while your at it).</description>

		<description>This is wack. What next, a poll to see if the candidates can &quot;fight crime.&quot; Come on!!! Truthfully, only the top 3 have respectable numbers. I would hate to have my child bring home a 79% in accounting!!</description>
