I’ve never seen so many people deluded into thinking that the term “historic” means something in phoenix. These districts aren’t historic–they are just older than most in the valley. The communist/socialist preservation advocates use the label to try and gain control of other people’s properties through city government. VIVA PROP 207 AND GOLDWATER INSTITUTE!!
Take the $15 and buy some books on individual liberty. Then volunteer to help the homeless read and gain skills for employment.
