Not speaking for @BTF, but I think you are oversimplifying his comment. I believe BTF is implying that taxes at a local level impact you at a much more personal level than federal taxes. I think most can agree that taxes are a waste of money, but I would rather pay more money to local taxes than federal taxes. Big, bloated government taxes/spending at a federal level hurt everyone.
Also, I think this thread was made to discuss which schools currently have turf and which schools do not have turf. @btownqbcoach1 saw the future, when he posted "I am sure some will take this thread as an opportunity to try and discredit/get butthurt about turf... but... meh." Boy, was he right....Maybe you should start your own thread "TURF SUCKS, SOD RULES"
