Here is an update on the tax story uncovered by the Inquirer. I don't believe I've ever seen quite so many negative comments following an article.
About a year ago, I myself published a letter in the Daily News and this list about a complete lack of professionalism among city council staff. I had abandoned all hope of professionalism in some councilmanic offices because I spent a year trying courteously and professionally to obtain an audience for a group of citizens wishing to productively discuss trash violation notices at the convenience of the staff. The staff members ignored each friendly attempt always pretending that they didn't know anything about the general problem or previous, very courteous, very professional written requests on behalf of this entire group of citizens. My office visits to city council would have made an hilarious Monty Python sketch! I thought I was the only hot-headed morally bankrupt meanie whom had ever experienced anything but stellar constituent services. I wonder why so many people have such anger over this special treatment issue? It's like, people at the mercy of this fine customer service oriented government have years of pent up anger for some strange and incomprehensible reasons!
