They're Just Dying To Ask You...

Who's asking? The city. You might wish they'd actually ask you if you really want those 12 foot wide interstate lanes in your front, or back yard. They don't care what you think about that. You might wonder if they want to know whether or not you want compensation for the loss of property value when they do this, against your will. Don't care about that either. 

So just what do they care about? What do they want to ask?


Yeppers. They want to know if you want anchovies on that pizza! Are we in eighth grade? Are they? Do they think it is a really good idea to treat us like we are? Who knows.

You would have thought with the Democrat's recent face-plant they'd have figured some things out. Yes, Yes, mayor and council races are officially non-partisan, but we all know what color flags they're waving, and they fit the description. One of the key reasons for their recent troubles has been their neglect of the electorate combined with a supercilious approach. They have for far too long listened to pollsters rather than constituents. They've been under the mind-control of wonks and outsiders. Otherwise we'd not have these interstate lanes in our neighborhoods and consequently no heated discussions about them. And we would not be "left behind" because we would be plotting our own path, going our own way. Not someone else's.

Maybe a recalls are not practical. Maybe we will have to wait until Election Day. Either way, something must change, either people, or policies, or both.
