"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
County Supervisors Mull Severance Packages for Themselves
“Under the board's proposal, an elected official who has served at least eight years would receive one week's pay for each year in office if he retired or voters decided to fire him. That's in addition to the retirement benefits that all public employees receive under the state pension system, and it would presumably help take the sting out of losing an election.” Such arrogance. I cannot imagine why people continue to pay for such things. Noncompliance -- I believe in it whole-heartedly, especially when it comes to providing government with money.
