You get what you pay for. I'm done.
I thank you for your dedicated service and your commitment to such a valuable career. However for every one of you that did as you stated, I can find 20 who did not. I am a teacher advocate, but look at the teachers unions who refuse being held accountable with testing. Look at those other public employees who take as much as they can get. Toll agents who work triple overtime in their final year so they collect 175% of final year salary in retirement. Look at our elected (bureaucrats) who refuse to cut any spending and want more revenue. They refuse to support a $1 in cuts for a $1 in new revenue.

All wasted? No. Way to much wasted? Yes. Sorry but I stand by my original comments and will always refuse to support any new tax or fee until those making the decisions find ways to reduce spending.
