"Yes, these cuts will effect departments but we have to start somewhere."
Why doesn't England start with the entire third floor offices and cut out wasteful lunch parties, take home cars, expensive meetings, travel expenses and giving themselves pay raises when they aren't doing their job worth a damn!
The police and fire department budgets must be cut. The police and fire depart need funding for more help.
England wants the Floyd County Council to approve a NEW "Public Safety Tax" on us!
So...What did the fire department do?
"They bought a NEW BOAT with money intended for Fire Pensions."
Deputy Mayor Malysz says the boat money could be used for anything.
Now where's the rip-off?
To our City Council Members:
Had we had the same track record as you all do at our jobs. We'd be out on our keester faster than you can say bye-bye!
One final thought:
England just don't get it!
He feels he should TAX the living crap out of everyone to Balance their Mistakes and Over Spending, it's going to be "the same ole shit just a different year" as long as he is in office!We just don't see why England doesn't understand that "We the People " have had to take pay cuts and cut back on OUR spending.
Why is it so hard for him to do the same things?
Remember taxpayers they each work for us, but England is very delusional, he now thinks WE ARE WORKING for him!"NO NEW TAXES ON US!"
