As the city was drowning in debt, the King was filling up at the pumps, and now his solution is, as usual, Rape the taxpayers. I know this is not news, but in all seriousness, your silence when he stole gas, hired his kids, friends, family, and consistently gave away the city to anyone willing to donate to his campaign has caused us all to pay up!
So when
you go to the store to buy blue bags and are hit with the new price of $10.00,
ask yourself “was ignoring the problem worth it?”
Don't blame your landlord
for the rent increase either, try to understand they got hit with increased
recycling, inspection, and any other fees our worthless King could hit them
with.
We are a city of 40,000 people, our King is paid $79,911 and only 6,981 vote.

I do not think the average citizen is aware of how few voted....Now might be a good time to get the info back out.....wallets are getting hit hard. I for one would like to do something...beyond my vote.
