Regarding the county being short of funds: I hope the commissioners are not going to lay off more deputies and more county employees and then allow people who are drawing full retirements and health care benefits to continue to work as rehires. This is totally wrong. With 12 percent unemployment and 8 million Americans having lost their jobs, it is time to change this. This is not proper.
I grew up in a blue-collar, low-income neighborhood. I can remember, as a small child, seeing strange men in our neighborhood. They were passing out their pictures with "Vote for me" on them. They gave each person a dollar bill — big money in those times — and asked for your vote. That's how it used to be. In today's world, they just tax the poor and give the cuts to the rich. Please don't classify me as a liberal or yourself as a conservative. Just change that to "slaves" and "aristocrats." Things will never change.
