A HUGE amount of money is involved, and the impact can be impressive. Local Soil and Water boards are also a place to get both experience and connections, and - again - the money they control is huge. Stopping waste will impact your life more than any amount of money spent to elect national politicians.<br /><br />And, identifying the corruption makes a real difference.<br /><br />Same with Citizen Review Boards - a fair, unbiased person can have a lot of impact on lives.Linda Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15024201252345608291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-18917889465909001442020-06-17T23:48:16.315-04:002020-06-17T23:48:16.315-04:00it makes my blood run cold to think of where we...it makes my blood run cold to think of where we'd be right at this moment if that bitch I won't name had won 4 years agoontoiranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04683062201958177783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-83169819668888478812020-06-17T16:15:05.160-04:002020-06-17T16:15:05.160-04:00Strong agree.

They are quick to jump on grand political bandwagons, movements, causes, and campaigns. In these things, they are at best a minor cog.<br /><br />Meanwhile, they are quick to DENY those things they can control, like their spending - incurring mountains of debt, failing to budget, etc...<br /><br />It's so strange to me.Manuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13082153758868357687noreply@blogger.com
