      <![CDATA[couldn't agree more, mr. strickland!<br>
<br>
at my business, none of us have had raises for 4 years because of the decline in our industry, paired with the down economy.<br>
<br>
city employees aren't entitled to a raise just because they haven't received one in a couple of years. the rest of us are figuring out how to make do without; they can too.<br>
<br>
oh, and we pay for our own cars as well...take those out of the budget!

      <![CDATA[Sounds pretty sensible. I think we should also get rid of any longstanding political favors to developers and construction companies if we haven't already, no more pet projects.<br>
 You're dead on about preserving public safety, no cuts there, maybe even an increase, but city staff, the mayor's administratiive favoritism appointees have GOT TO GO!<br>
It was out of line when it was done and it is out of line now.<br>
 We need someone sensible to run for mayor.
