As I see it: More Government Won’t Save Us Money
Description
The city is discussing a new city administrator position for the jaw-dropping price of $185,000 annually. Now, supporters claim the position will make us more efficient and through those efficiencies pay for itself. But hold up. If we can save money just by being more efficient, why not just fix those inefficiencies ourselves? We don’t need a high-priced referee to solve the city’s problems. More government won’t fix what government already broke. And spending more money won’t save us money. What we need is leadership that gets things done. Think about it. If you wanted to lose weight, would you buy a $10,000 treadmill when you already had a gym membership? Of course not. So why are we spending nearly $200,000 on a new boss to, quote, fix things that we can fix ourselves? Efficiency comes from strong leadership, not bloated payrolls and not more government. Let’s save our money and demand real results for our city.
