i have long wondered, dave, why the government does not spend out taxes more
efficiently. it is why i've run for city council here in santa monica 8 times.
we have over half a billion dollars in revenues for a city of about 86,000,
located in approximately 8.6 sq. miles, much of which is soaked up by
administration and bureaucratic waste. santa monica would be a utopia if that
budget was put to good use...
