During the campaign, a lot of City Council candidates ran on cliches about taking a hard look at the budget to see what could be cut. They were pretty light on specifics, except maybe exempting police from cuts. But now that they are in power, and trying to make cuts, they are finding that no matter how hard the look, the only programs they come up with are good.
They don’t have a mandate for the actual, specific cuts; just vague promises to cut the bad bits or the waste. Of course, they wouldn’t have a mandate if they lost either.
Anyway, please wash your hands right now. And get vaccinated or boosted if you’re eligible.
