      <![CDATA["Or maybe you should do something PRODUCTIVE like vote into office a city council and mayor that understand what it takes to attract businesses and jobs to your city."<br>
<br>
I just don't understand how we are supposed to get rid of the earnings tax and still be able to pay for all the services in the city. I think what we who live in Kansas City find so annoying is that there is this attitude among many who live in the suburbs that they should be able to work in and enjoy our city without having to contribute anything.

If it weren't for the city's existence in the first place, Leawood would have remained prairie grass with the occasional corn field.
