They should have pad - locked the welfare office instead. That would have saved a LOT more money.

This type of thing has occurred before and of course will again.

When faced with budget shortfalls, politicians usually threaten to cut services and personnel they hope their constituents will rush to protect. Policemen and teachers are favorite sacrificial lambs. When the public screams, they can claim they need a tax increase to avoid doing so.

This way they don't have to cut their family members, welfare beaurecrats, etc. Or, for that matter, police beaurecrats....

Actually he has a point.  You should see some of the pathetic people here who do not want to work.

Mike, if you want to be "Alan Alda" "Mr. sensitive" crying towel to the downtrodden of the whole world go right ahead! But do it with your own funds, not mine.
Far from being "bitter" I'm a fairly happy white man. You don't sound too happy lately, Obama not living up to your expectations?
The differance here is that I'd close welfare offices and you'd close police stations and fire stations.
What kind of mismanagement has the city of Oakland, Calif. been involved in that brings them to this point?
It doesn't sound like they've been doing a very good job of "managing" the Taxpayer's money does it?
That's how people get "de-elected."

FTA:

Paid for by the Stockton, California police union, the message of the billboard is chillingly clear: "Welcome to the 2nd most dangerous city in California. Stop laying off cops." As state, city and local governments across the United States continue to be devastated by the ongoing economic crisis, budget cuts are becoming much deeper and police forces have suddenly become a very popular target.


But the truth is that so many of these local governments around the nation are just flat broke at this point.


Will Thousands Of Police Layoffs Unleash Chaos And Anarchy Across America?

Thousands of police officers have been laid off all across America since the current economic crisis began. Thousands more are getting ready to be laid off. So could we be on the verge of a new era of chaos and anarchy in America as crime runs wild and there are just far too few police to respond to it all? That is the message that one blood-smeared billboard in Stockton, California is trying to get across. Paid for by the Stockton, California police union, the message of the billboard is chillingly clear: "Welcome to the 2nd most dangerous city in California. Stop laying off cops." As state, city and local governments across the United States continue to be devastated by the ongoing economic crisis, budget cuts are becoming much deeper and police forces have suddenly become a very popular target.
