A Place on Planet Earth
FACTS:
There is a place on earth where:
an appointed board allegedly refuse to follow federal regulations, which could lead to loss of flood insurance coverage for the citizens of the area;
an elected local governing board passes an ordinance which allegedly violates its own ordinance, which could lead to the loss of state transportation funds to the citizens of the area;(stop signs and water lines)
an elected individual who allegedly over-steps his/her authority in an effort to acquire a luxury office building at citizens of the area’s expense;
a local government administration with elected and non-elected individuals allegedly violating laws and rules without worry of consequences;
an elected official who allegedly wrote a letter stating that it isn’t his job to investigate alleged criminal activities, it is the responsibility of the law enforcement;
new laws are constantly being introduced because it is alleged that the existing laws are not enforced;
an elected individual who appears on a local radio talk show and is alleged to have made up excuses of why he does not perform his job;
certain appointed board members fallacy of having more authority than the appointing authority.
OPINIONS:
Is it possible that all of the above could be happening in one place on planet Earth?
Could all of the above actually be happening in, lets say, Lafourche Parish, Louisiana?
Could the citizens be so fed up as to say, LET-EM-HAAAAAVE-ITTTTT?
In my opinion, public servants should have enough money available before it is spent, whether it is used for rentals or the purchase of buildings and construction. If you purchase a lottery ticket, it is my opinion that you should not spend your winnings until after the drawing and the money is in your hands.
A word of caution to all elected officials in Louisiana, do not spend the offshore revenue sharing money until the money (not the promise) is in the bank.
Visit with us again as we examine the reason behind the alleged statement of a Lafourche Parish Council employee, “ HOW LONG DO YOU EXPECT US TO PUT UP WITH THIS MADNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
