Red Lion School District decided to increase their school taxes by 3.9%.  This has numerous people up on edge as the economy has already chopped away at their pocketbooks and now to take more out just isn't practical anymore. 

More and more residents in the Red Lion School District and surrounding districts are talking more and more about have county wide schools instead of local districts.  It would eliminate much more overhead and keep the tax base much more in line.  "If other areas can do it, we can to" a local resident shouts out.  "Where else can we cut our budget" another resident shouts out.

Obviously all of York County, not just the Red Lion School District,  would have to agree with such a scenario and it would be years before it could be implemented.  But unless someone steps up to the plate and gets the ball rolling, you are going to have people that are disgruntled and not having faith in our local government.

It boils down to the old cliche "What is the definition of Insanity"?  We all know what that answer is.
