[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know. I think because it is such a well educated county, most people assume things will be handled properly. Everyone is busy sitting in traffic and shuttling kids to and fro. I think most just assume the county gov't will do the obvious thing. Yet it is proven time and again, that isn't necessarily how is plays out. Personally I think it tracks back to the ACDC. They set the agenda and I think most homeowners would be surprised at those priorities. Special interests really run the table. [/quote] I agree. But, I used to turn red in the face telling these people that you CAN'T trust them. I would educate them and tell them to go to the local elections and I'm a full-time busy working mom with kids in multiple travel sports and I still could stay informed. We are where we are because of the blind trust everyone put in these elected officials. It's ignorant. Democracy only works when those with the vote engage.[/quote]
