Comments on: What A Sewer The Local Governments Are https://whynow.dumka.us/2012/05/11/what-a-sewer-the-local-governments-are/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Sun, 13 May 2012 16:28:18 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2012/05/11/what-a-sewer-the-local-governments-are/comment-page-1/#comment-59509 Sun, 13 May 2012 16:28:18 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/?p=25310#comment-59509 Three-quarters of million here, three-quarters there, and pretty soon you are talking about ‘real’ money – to paraphrase Everett Dirksen.

The new police chief for the airport was in charge of evidence at his last job and would sell weapons that were supposed to be destroyed to pawn shops.

A bunch of sociopaths and petty criminals being hired by incompetent ideologues elected by sheep based solely on labels.

A stadium for the 49’ers has a better chance of making some money than the undersized, overpriced ‘convention center’ that the county supervisors had build on a section of pristine beach after people rejected the entire concept in an ‘advisory referendum’.

At least in the Northeast we had corruption that involved some planning and intelligence, but down here it is just money grubbing.

And here I thought our local government was corrupt ’cause the York family bribed our city council to loot $1B out of the utilities capital improvement fund over the next 30 years to build them a sports palace for the San Francisco 49’ers. But at least they’re not corrupt on the *little* things, it takes some big money to corrupt them. Seems like your guys can’t be trusted in a 7-11 ’cause they’ll try to walk out the door without paying for their Big Gulp…

It would save a lot of time and money.

I do like that the current governor of Illinois can consult with his two predecessors, subject to permission of the Warden!

We call the person who is charge of a prison a governor. Perhaps we prefer our governors to be on the other side of the bars!
