Mothers for a Museum
I am a father, and I agree with all the things reported in the story “Children should not miss out on museum”
HOWEVER
it says that you “wish to take the museum debate OUT of the political arena”
YET YOU STILL WISH TO FORCE OTHER PEOPLE TO PAY FOR THE MUSEUM!
You are IMPLORING the city council to keep a museum in THEIR PLAN.
What you are doing is asking the COUNCIL to USE FORCE UPON RATEPAYERS
You are putting pressure on the council to TAKE MONEY from people BY FORCE
Once the council make the decison to build a museum, all those who pay rates have NO CHOICE but to PAY or be Fined or Criminalised for not doing so!
You are asking the council to be a BULLY on YOUR BEHALF!
Isn’t bullying BAD? Isn’t it WRONG? or do we allow bullying sometimes!
The use of FORCE is BAD, and is NOT a good thing to teach children is it!
Children should be taught to use their MIND, not resort to FORCE to get what they want
Do mothers for a museum think it acceptable to demand council do the dirty work of bullying on their behalf? -
There are many ways to achieve a museum WITHOUT THE USE OF FORCE
For Example
Before COUNCIL took it upon themselves to be everything to everybody, we had beautiful childrens playgrounds, swimming pools, fountains etc.
These were provided by COMMUNITY SPIRITED SERVICE GROUPS like Lions, jaycees, Rotary etc.
THE COMMUNITY would see a need for something, get together and plan, fundraise, and get sponsorship etc then they would all get together on a weekend, and dig holes, build swings and slides, pour concrete, paint and decorate, have a picnic together, and BUILD THEM
FREE OF CHARGE and COMPULSION and BUILT with COMMUNITY SPIRIT.
What happens now?
People go to the council and DEMAND they provide it (whatever it is) trying to shortcut the process, and in the process have KILLED community Spirit
You cannot FORCE people to be community spirited, (although people do insist on trying to)
As long as you insist on FORCING OTHER PEOPLE to pay for what you want, you are doing your children a disservice, and teaching them that it is OK to use FORCE, and to be a BULLY
Why not try a different, more MORAL approach to achieving the museum you all so desire?
Your children will thank you for THAT
Especially when THEY become ratepayers, and do not have to continue paying for it!
