      <![CDATA[While I disagree with your synopsis of consolidation, I do agree that this is NOT the best possible scenario. <br>
<br>
First is the fact that there is no reduction in the combined city and county workforce.

      <![CDATA[Memphiswatchdog-<br>
It has nothing for the suburban cities being selfish; We are just asking the hard questions about what benefits there are for the suburbs to have the county government merge with Memphis? <br>
<br>
I have read the studies for and against it, and sadly the suburbs get the responsibility while Memphis gets away from the mess their elected representives created.

      <![CDATA[Merc, I am cautiously optimistic that African Americans will largely vote for consolidation this time, showing an incremental reduction in the white-black split we saw in the 70's. This will come despite loudmouths in the black community nitpicking one or two points based on self interst over the overall good of the community.

      <![CDATA[Let's face it, the consolidation issue has devolved into a complete replay of the '70s and the desegregation white flight. You stay on your side of the line and I'll stay on my side.
