Debt-on-Debt "Government Style"

Local government takes out a loan against SPLOST dollars to buy lights for a dog park. REALLY!! Wowwwww...

Remember that penny we all agreed to give to the local government a while back "SPLOST"? Woodstock is now going to take out a loan against those future payments to apparently buy lights for a dog park. Guess who gets to pay the interest on this loan? YOU do! So, not only did you agree to give the financially irresponsible government an extra 1% on top of the price you are paying for everything, they get to raise your taxes to pay the interest on the ridiculous new debt.
