Facing $1 Billion Deficit, Arizona Sharply Limits Welfare - US News (http://www.usnews.com/news/us/articles/2015/05/18/facing-1-billion-deficit-arizona-sharply-limits-welfare)

Wait ... who could have foreseen this?!?

Violent crime up, arrests down in Baltimore | Maryland News - WBAL Home (http://www.wbaltv.com/news/violent-crime-up-arrests-down-in-baltimore/33109338)

"Zero tolerance and arresting everybody for every little thing led to the underlying issues that we have been dealing with in the city. So, for me, we have to look at who is being arrested, the quality of arrest and what they are being arrested for versus the sheer number of arrests," Baltimore City Councilman Brandon Scott said.

"You could have 500 arrests in a two-week period for, you know, loitering, or standing, or failure to obey versus having people who are suspects in homicides, robberies and shootings," Scott said.

^^^^ Yes, lets have Balt City council members tell me and my family that they are openly telling the Police Force to NOT interact with the loitering drunk druggies that walk my neighborhood. To let the drunk druggies piss and shit openly on the street where i have to walk with my daughter.

Lets make sure my lady gets chased down the street again bc we dont want to offend the drunk hispanics guys who wanted to see my mama's titties.

Joe - whats the point of even staying in the good parts? I was paying close to 6% property tax but I would have to pay for private school on top of that. the costs of the good neighborhoods are going up drastically. why buy a decent town home for 250k when you can buy a decent town home in Columbia for 250k?

lol why were travel expenses approved for councilwoman Helen Holton to travel to hawaii for a convention addressing west coast state issues when only reps for those west coast states are going .. except some random lady named Helen Holton from Balt City.

Trust me, right there with you OTM. Stuck here for a year or so, but have had enough. Can't get out soon enough.

Where you headed Joe?

Why couldn’t $130 million transform one of Baltimore’s poorest places? - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/why-couldnt-130-million-transform-one-of-baltimores-poorest-places/2015/05/02/0467ab06-f034-11e4-a55f-38924fca94f9_story.html)

I dont know if this had been posted before, but this disgusts me...130 million tax dollars flushed down the drain. Thats your tax money. Im sure a good part of the money ended up in corrupt city officals, local clergy, corrupt businessmen...

I would never live in baltimore, overtaxed and poorly run.

I have a friend who is a contractor with the City. The stories he tells me about the massive waste of money taking place are insane!

The Wire was all truth.

Yeah, I mean waste happens everywhere...but when you have the same politicians, the same insiders, from the same party, saying the same thing, making the same promises over and over in Baltimore...folks you got to change it up. The samething isn't working, doesn't everyone realize that?

Politicians, civic leaders, the police, and most important the people who reside in Baltimore all are responsible for their city. It absolutely disgusts me when the Baltimore riots were happening and cnn was interviewing a recognizable Maryland senator or congressman...I forget his name...older black man. But his fucking excuse was the federal government had cut a program...and they needed more federal help ie "money". I seriously want to punch this mf'er out. The only thing his punk ass can come up with is my fucking federal tax dollars? Fuck you u fucking irresponsible piece of shit...clean up or own fucking problem.
