He is just moving them around and giving most of them a raise. Dr. White is the one who needs to be laid off.

Make the Simon's deal with the 15 million operating costs on Conseco. Then maybe they could close up shop and let some adults who understand financing and how to run a business take over. Ok I am dreaming! Why in heaven did it take them so long to come up with budget cuts when they were in the red for so long? It's time to turn the management over to professionals who understand the business.guy77moneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07248410686603913517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-9979267174263321862009-04-20T21:30:00.000-05:002009-04-20T21:30:00.000-05:00HOW MANY ADMINISTRATORS ARE THEY GOING TO LAY OFF?...HOW MANY ADMINISTRATORS ARE THEY GOING TO LAY OFF????<br /><br />They might solve the root of the problem by getting rid of some of those freeloading educrats.M Theoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01892309818226431745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-21971512883441627012009-04-20T21:06:00.000-05:002009-04-20T21:06:00.000-05:00MAKES SENSE:

To think legislators keep standing at the pulpit and scream about taxes and bailouts piling up on our children. Then they turn around a give tax dollars already paid or raise a few and pay for thugs and friends to get richer while our teachers lose their jobs.<br /><br />Sounds like priorities to me!I knowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14837535454387104930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-5296659355474424042009-04-20T17:57:00.000-05:002009-04-20T17:57:00.000-05:00Shorebreak - did I miss something?

Do you think the Trustees are going to give the money back. If the townships are abolished and consolidated into Marion County, it's going to be spent elsewhere, anyway, if past is prologue. Note that he's asking that it be used to cover the CIB's debt obligations, not to give the Simons $15 million a year more.Gary R.

They make a plan to take taxpayer money, and then DeLaney says this:<br /><br />"The last thing we should do is look to the taxpayers when we have problems," DeLaney said. "The first thing we should do is look to what resources we have and how we can better marshal those at no cost to the citizens."<br /><br />So where did the trustee funds come from if not from the taxpayers? Does anyone know?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
