[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd immediately leave if it ever happened.  The county already is deep in the hole and its finances already stink.  They'd have to raise taxes even more.  And why the hell would I pay more taxes to give UBI to citizens from other countries that are here illegally?  MoCo rolls out the red carpet for illegal immigrants. [/quote]
While I'm not a huge fan of UBI, MoCo bond rating is a AAA.  I assume you know what that means, right?[/quote]

I work for the county, in the finance/budget area.   The government is rotting from within.  The average resident can't see it yet, but it's happening.   We are in the black for the first time in years, and instead of using the additional funds to identify and correct structural deficits in service delivery, it will likely all go to fairly large raises for employees -- because it's an election year.

Everything now is for show.  It's never about substance.  [/quote]

I worked for the county many years ago and the finances were a hot mess years ago.  The amount of waste was sickening and as workers we couldn't get what we needed to do our jobs (pens, basic supplies, computers).  [/quote]
