Well said. I agree. My fear is that we think it is all fine. Sorry I couldn't reply directly. It won't let me. For some reason I can't with the Mac I have on this site.
The mayor is doing nothing different from what our Congress does. Voting themselves salaries in the wee morning hours. What doesn't make sense is the mayor's spokesperson's comment that "the mayor doesn't think an independent citizen commision should have the authority to determine salaries for the mayor and city councilors IN THESE TOUGH TIMES." It would be ok if the times were prosperous? Afraid CITIZENS would try to cut back on or freeze salaries to show budgetary responsibility? They are a power unto themselves and we have allowed this at the ballot box. And it seems we are going to lose that option also.
A great place despite the Pete and Nancy Domenici name at the North side of the building which has a decided slant downward. Walk by it every day. Doing some groundbreaking work. Interesting to see this story showing up now. As one PhD/MD once told me, what we know about the brain is like a piano tuner attempting to tune the piano with a sledge hammer. We are at the beginnings of the frontier. May they do well and prosper.
"Your comment must be approved by the site admins before it will appear publicly." There is the new Poster regulation. What gives. Nothing nasty or derogatory in the comments. The new censor of this site must be kept busy.
Will try again. The number of laws and regulations passed each year is staggering. We write up laws and ordinances for every pet peeve we have. We regulate everyone with weeds, house numbers, signs, cameras, checkpoints and more. Very few laws are ever taken off the books. It has been said that there are two things to fear: those that want to control everything and those that don't. Seems that we have more who want to control everything. We will no longer be a nation of laws. We will be a nation of LAWYERS.
Someone here must have a sense of humor. Can't post with out it being censored or looked at by whatever the administrator is for this site. Perfectly harmless comment left over 2 hours ago and it is not posted. I guess I need a permit to post on this topic.
One more law and regulation. As someone has said, there are two types of people to fear: those who want to control and regulate everything and those who don't. Those who want to change everything, and those who don't. If we make a law or regulation for every pet peeve or concern, we might all end up in jail. Weeds, cameras, house numbers, signs, and it never stops. How many new laws passed every year times the number of years in front of you....the number is staggering. How many laws are removed from the books? Very few. We are no longer a nation of laws. We are a nation of lawyers.
Interesting point. I had thought the same thing reading their posts. You stated it very well. There are obviously axes to grind here. If they work there it is a frightening place.
And so this is the future of healthcare. Shivers my timbers trying to read some of the posts. I will die at home, god willing and the creek doesn't rise.
You can try to email them at the address they give. Call the stores for more info, but I was told it was by cash, check or cc in the store themselves. That way you get the ticket and proper receipt showing address etc. in case they have to refund your money.
