The city of Los Angeles annual budget for fire is roughly $783 million. The $17 million cut represents about 2%. The problem is not so much the dollar figure as it is the management of those dollars. The city administration has been corrupted for a long time. Not Chiraq-style corrupt (yet!) but it is getting worse because of deleterious policy. Not deleterious due to unknown effects, but as intended.
To wit; the hiring of certain people because they check the boxes, none of which are about competency.
A city annual budget around 12 Billion. 55 Billion unfunded liabilities. It's the same song, same verse of every socialist paradise. Made worse by going woke as a matter of official policy. True to form, they'd rather burn it to the ground if that meant changing policy. The aftermath of this current conflagration will feature much blathering, little change. Change akin to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Let's see how much jopedo gives to Smell Abon these last days.
Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.

Yesterday, I saw a WalGreen's employee at the pharmacist, a white female with blonde hair, who wore a WalGreen's t-shirt "We Love Diversity".

DeleteIs it me or do women who are hired because they're lesbians seem to have no other abilities?
ReplyDeleteedutcher, no other.

Rick, the world is filled with a loot stupid people, and regrettably too many of them are in government.
