I am willing to listen to their case. I am willing to hear it before I decide whether to give my permission. That is not a smear. That is the posture of a free place that still owns its land-use. Not just me. On August 18, 2026, this Village ran an election that was about […]
The Experiment Continues An Update to “Disband the Martin County CRA’s” ( the original paper follows this discussion) August 2026 In May 2015 I wrote that after roughly fifteen years the Martin County Community Redevelopment Agencies had run long enough. The structure diverted growing property-tax increments away from the general fund and into geographically favored […]
We cannot fully define truth any more than we can bottle lightning or contain the ocean in a thimble. Truth resists complete encapsulation because it is not a static object but a living relationship between the knower and the known, between the ideal and the actual, between the inner life and its outward expression.
