Tim, I think it is time for you to exit from the DFL big spenders and join the Minneapolis GOP...... Wally Swan on the Board of Tax and Estimate has always been a cautionary voice about fiscal discipline. Too bad most other city politicians take their responsibility as stewards of taxpayer money so lightly. One party government is always bad. I think the saying goes "Power corrupts, Absolute Power corrupts absolutely."
