7235 - I wouldn't feel so bad about it if they used our tax dollars wisely, and for what they were intended. A few weeks ago, we had one hell of a big snow storm. It started the previous evening and wasn't expected to stop until the following afternoon. They decided to wait until it was over to plow. Meanwhile, people still have to go to work and the roads in the morning were nearly impassable. People called in to ask why tf the roads are not being maintained. So local crews went out with their plow trucks but did not lower their plows, saying that plowing reduces fuel mileage of their plowing fleet, so they wouldn't drop the plows until the snow stopped falling and essentially, they only intended to have the plows on the road so that people would see them and stop calling to complain.
THAT is government at work. I could've choked whoever made that stupid decision until they were seeing stars.
I know...it sounds unbelievable. It really does. But that is the mentally deficient mindset around here.
