Ds want to send cities/states fat checks.It'll get worse as the liabilities on pub employee retirement funds gets deeper.At least in OR, politicians do NOT want to p*** off public employee unions.

Several Basic Fraud Schemes to Note:I have now been in accounting and specifically in Forensic Accounting and Fraud Examination for 7+ years not only dealing with your typical frauds, embezzlement, theft, and breach of contracts, I have been a part of numerous high profile cases dealing with politicians, real estate developers, even big pharma.

Abbot is saying this will make Texas cities like Austin less safe.Mayor Adler says only 21mil has been cut so far, but much more will be "reallocated" (80mil + 49mil). 80 mil to 911 call centers, forensics labs, administrative services, and internal affairs. 49 mil to eliminate "entire police units like patrol and traffic enforcement for other public safety options" Of course, politicians always frame things in a way that suits their agenda, so not sure what to interpret from all of it.

Its to much for any politician to solve.

And read the exact words they selected, remember they are politicians, every thing they do has a purpose and most often it is to shift blame.
