City budget forum review

Gone Mild has a recap of yesterday’s city budget summit where attendees discusses ways to close a $85 million gap in the city’s budget.  Financial consultants hired by the city are recommending increasing fees on things like trash collection, reeling in tax breaks, etc.  Gone Mild says most of the talk focused raising fees and laying off city employees, and nobody talked about wealthy Kansas Citians stepping up to shoulder some of the burden.

    Idiots. Why the hell is KC spending money on consultants EVERY time they have a question about something? There’s the damn budget problem. What are we paying the fools at the city to do, anyway? I say, fire the dumbasses at city hall and hire the consultants! That’d cut the budget in half.
