I am so grateful for Keady. As far as I have been able to tell, he is the only council person who understands that politics is about SERVICE. I can identify with his tendency to poke. Its hard for me not to, but I am quickly realizing that I need to grow up and learn more intelligent ways to serve my community. We could all use some lessons in non violent communication!
As for the budget deficit, I am anxious for an intelligent solution from SUFA. I have some crazy ones to throw out in the spirit of brainstorming. I would like to see us throw some ideas back and forth, even if they are kooky... How could AP generate more revenue??? couldn't we all pitch in to a debt reduction effort? what if everyone pitched in ...incomes over 50000 100$/year under 10$/year...I know that one will make people pissed, but i certainly get .30/day of pleasure in this city. i think there is a world of ideas that we could explore with open minds and in the spirit of the possible. we need to stop expecting those in power to do it all. we as ordinary joes need to take more action, more responsibility. we don't need to be ashamed, or point fingers. i live beyond my means like many good american consumer, I can't bash anyone for a deficit. we could have fun community fund raisers to get the collectors off our backs..move from the red to the black AND create community... anyway...what is your idea for getting us out of debt? it IS US and it is OUR debt!
