Ball Of Confusion

Dear Readers:
I am very confused, how is it our government is so out of money, but it did not stop
any of them from getting their automatic raises, but are continually asking the general public to cut back while they are steadily raising taxes on everything. Do we have to revolt before we can get a break? The police department according to the News reports bonsuses for over the board uniforms and over time even though it is not necessary. We all know they don't purchase that many new uniforms. We need to stop padding the books and live within their means and fair wages, and cut out some the extras, on the tax payers' money. Why public workers are the only people can make up their short fall up on the public? Trim the FAT.
