XXter: gather those trouble makers up and make them guild their own jail
SYSTEM: Guest just signed off.
XXter: I was at the council meeting last night. It seems we should be able to raise money for security if we can raise money for concrete art to put in our un affordable parks.
ProducerBadBob: Bump Music : The Cranberries "Zombie"
ProducerBadBob: =)
drmaria: zombie movie that is produced, made by Veterans
ProducerBadBob: :: I crack myself up :P ::
XXter: It was stated that the money was donated for the art.. how about donating money for a jail
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Why do we have a city manager, deputy city mgr, and assustant mgr? Especially since starman makes more than biden?
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Lees makes 300k, and starman 300plusk
XXter: I think we should lay half the city staff off...
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Whats so important that we pay them that much?
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: The city mgr making that much should be doing everythong and b on call 24/7 like Biden is.
ProducerBadBob: I'm looking at the Range 15 Trailer on youtube and laughing my a$$ off
XXter: watch your language...
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Cpunty clerks make less than minimum wage
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: A brand new veteran service rep has to pay 400 from each pay check to fund his or her medical.
Mike: Bob, is Carl aware of the Canatera loop derailment/spill?
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: With wages like that..how do we attract and keep great people?
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Lees refuses to give any county worker a raise
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Unless a depsrtment heaf
ProducerBadBob: I've mentioned that incident before. I was a reported in those days. It was a nasty business.
ProducerBadBob: *reporter
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Id be excited to get trainedbas a web developer
XXter: My recommendation would be to curtail the pensions... pay the city employees enough that they can take out their own private retirement plans. We shouldn't be stuck paying pensions. This way they can be fired when we need to downsize. life is life and the city employees have us as a gravy train.
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: The city onky cares about starman amd neimier
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Public service wasnt meant to make a luxury lifestyle on tax payers dime
XXter: exactly
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: I dont see what lees andbstarman do that makes them worth 300k
drmaria: BB: You have no idea how funny Range 15 is!! From beginning to end Mat Best does a great job!!
XXter: I can see them making half that but no cushy health care and pension
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: They cant write law, settle a dispute in congress, step in as president of the usa. Or smoothe things out with enemies of America. So why that much? What do they really do?
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Theres the savings for law enforcement and fire department
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Maybe Bob knows who audited the city of bell?
SYSTEM: Please welcome LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN who just joined the chat.
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: We need that auditer
XXter: These criminals we should recall deliberately pushed the public comments to the rear, got rid of the electric commission, dropped the DRBA and now they want to put cement art in pur parks that we can't afford and buy a golf course, plus redesign a flag.
ProducerBadBob: XX so far, the courts have ruled that those contracts which were written in good faith must be honored.
XXter: But lets stop it...
XXter: no more
ProducerBadBob: There is what is FAIR...and there is what is REALITY...and agreed, from now forward...but the past agreements have to be honored. Otherwise that snowball puts every pension at risk
XXter: otherwise we should move and let Calif separate from the union... Or create Jefferson.. also we could go bankrupt
LLEESMAKESMORETHANBIDEN: Recall
ProducerBadBob: The government would like nothing better than to be able to tell every public employee..."Oh...sorry..."
XXter: there is the term.. you can't grow money on trees
