“politics of patronage”?

By Josh Sweigart | Wednesday, April 2, 2008, 04:00 PM

In a position piece decrying the $3.8 million early retirement incentive program recently offered to Butler County employees, Commissioner Donald Dixon made an interesting reference.

Dixon: “(The retirement incentive) makes a bet that somehow the politics of patronage that has long dominated hiring practices in Butler County government will somehow change.”

What do you think? If you have any stories about apparent patronage in hiring or promotion within county government, I’d like to know.

In fact, feel free to call me about this or anything else: (513) 820-2175.
