I thought this meme was identified decades ago: Whenever a town threatens to cut the fire department's budget, the FD whines loudly, and let a house or two burn down, and then they point fingers back at the mayor / town board.
Once voters know the pattern, they're hep to it.
So what's with the NYPD ? No voter control ? Should NYers start proposing referendums ? Are referendums even possible ?
- HDThoreaun 3y agoI'm in Chicago, but we have a similar situation. Voters are wise to the pattern, there's just nothing we can do about it other than firing all of them and bringing in the national guard, and we're not ready to do that. They've got us by the balls, blaming them doesn't get them to start working again
