Letter To The Editor

 

Are corporations simply associations of people, and therefore entitled to the constitutional rights of people as laid out in our Constitution?  This is an argument you often hear when discussing the petition warrant articles that are found on the ballots of local towns this year. 

 

In his book Corporations Are Not People, Jeffrey Clements, an attorney with much experience representing people and businesses, says, “Corporations are economic tools created by state law; corporation shares are property.” He points out that, “A corporation  is a government-defined legal structure for doing business.”  It is also of interest that there is no definition of a corporation in the Citizens United Supreme Court decision, leaving one to wonder why this was left out? 

 

As Clements notes, the people who form a corporation under a state law “have all the same rights they had before they decided to incorporate and the same inalienable rights of all Americans. The corporation, however, does not, and we are not required to pretend that the corporation is the same as people...Once we recall that the rules for corporations come from us, for the betterment of our nation, the idea of ‘corporate rights’ will be exposed as ridiculous.”

 

When you go to vote on the warrant article on your ballot, if 25 or more of your fellow citizens were concerned enough about this issue to sign a petition to put it there, ask yourself this question: Does our Constitution give the right of free speech and other Constitutional rights to economic tools that the states may create by passing laws which may be repealed? Our rights as people under the Constitution are inalienable, but a law may be declared unconstitutional by a court and/or be changed by a vote of a legislature. Vote Yes on Article 19.

Northwood Community World Day Of Prayer.

 

Women, men, and children in more than 170 countries and regions will celebrate World Day of Prayer, Friday, March 7, 2014.  This year, the women of WDP Committee of Egypt invite us into a time of worship with the words of the prophet Isaiah:  “I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert.” With these words as backdrop, we are invited to learn about Egypt’s history and rich cultural diversity.

 

An exploration of the Samaritan woman’s conversation with Jesus at the well offers us an opportunity for deep dialogue and reflection about the borders that we, like Jesus and the Samaritan woman, must cross to get to streams of living water.  The woman by the well has a theological conversation with Jesus that ends with action.  Our motto “informed prayer leads to prayerful action” follows that example.  Jesus and the woman were able to transcend their religious and cultural differences and build a common ground that then empowered the woman to bring change to her community.

 

This year’s service will be on March 7 at 1 p.m at Northwood Advent Christian Church  at 113 School Street (Route 107) “handicap accessible” to join the women of Egypt in prayer and song to support ecumenical efforts toward justice, peace, healing and wholeness.  The annual offering supports the work of World Day of Prayer USA and helps meet the needs of families in Egypt and around the world who are victims of many forms of poverty, violence, and justice.

 

Besides the above mentioned church, other participants are the Northwood Congregational Church UCC and the St. Joseph Catholic Church.

 

World Day of Prayer USA promotes justice and equality for women through prayer, partnerships, service, and celebration.  For more information about the national World Day of Prayer USA go to  (www.wdp-usa.org).

 


 

Letter To The Editor

 

To the Editor,

I really want to talk about the school year 14/15 budget, I am proud of it because it represents a $364K reduction while catching us up in some very important areas.

 

But first I want to address the letter about a School Board Member (me) in last week’s Sun. There are many misstatements in it like the sentence about a towns fund balance. I never mentioned it. So I am not going to nitpick or have a fight in the paper but instead ask you to consider that the writer in my opinion recently abandoned our town in its hour of need by resigning his Selectman position at a very difficult time.

 

He has a history of misstating facts like the letter last year where he only used part of the students enrollment in Northwood and Nottingham simply to hoodwink you. And finally, last year, with the School Board’s blessing, I went to court pro se to get permission to have a special election to allow 6 teachers an incentive to retire. This “with all due respect, gentleman” fought me in court every step of the way and he lost at each step. The court allowed the election and you overwhelmingly approved a deal that will save the taxpayers over 600K. He was not at one budget meeting, School Board Meeting, or the Deliberative Session. I did not miss one.

 

Next year’s school budget, while it does come in at almost $364 less than this year’s budget, has in it many expenditures that are sorely needed. Technology, textbooks, science and math supplies are all areas that we are finally able to improve upon while doing our part to reduce taxes. It’s not about the writer or myself, it’s about the students. I will not misuse your money or let you down.
