In Waukee, Iowa, the city manager has big plans. He'll try to spend a few million tax dollars on "development." When it is all gone, the chumps paying the bills will get to know where it went.
This guy has put the city development plans in his personnel file, making them secret under the law. And the mayor and city council go along.
"The public trusts us when they elect us to efficiently run the government and the city," (Mayor) Peard said. "They trust that we manage the city (administrator) and that the city (administrator) manages his administration. I guess the evaluation factor comes (at election time) with how good of a job they think we've done."
So, Waukee folks, y'all go ahead and vote, then take a two-year nap. Just like your buddies out in Bell, California.
Actually, the mayor and council are probably relatively honest people, as politicians go. Just naive.
I don't know which is worse, to be governed by a thug or by a stupe.
