When things get tough, you have to make tough decisions and start doing without some things. I've done it before in my budget, as I'm sure most of you have done as well. The city is at that position now where you can't just spend more and more money. You have to start cutting back. | Well said Bubba!! I know I have learned to do with less in the current economic climate. Government and Schools only compound our hardship when they refuse to do with less and take MORE of our money from us.
