NOTWITHMYMONEY are exclusively Santa Clara residents.

We do not do "spin". We do not do "deception". We do not do "arrogance" or "hubris".

We are not sheep. We will not blindly follow any purported "insider" or self-styled "Civic Leader". We do not leave reason at the feet of what someone tells us, is in "our" best interest.

We are independent. We can crunch the numbers ourselves, thank you very much.

What we do, in contrast to the above, are facts. Each and every fact we cite must be footnoted or hot-linked to a source. The stakes for Santa Clara residents in the decision to grant the billionaires' Yorks subsidy request is so huge ($1,400-$4,300 for each and every man, woman and child resident), it requires no less.

We have neither paid political, nor any paid consultants of any kind. We will not have any...ever.

If we make mistakes, we'll fess up. We are all residents and volunteers, doing the best we can.

We believe facts and truth trump ignorance.

If you agree, notwithmymoney may be the group for you. If not, exit now.
