I find that interesting in that in getting out and talking to some people I am surprised now and then.
I was talking to a local "conservative" about bus service. I was complaining about the cost of running bus service out to the newly annexed parts of the city. I was like "If people need bus service they should move and live near areas that have bus service". He was like "But Bus service is a basic city service" and I replied "What did they do for transportation before they were annexed?".
Services cost money ..............
I think everyone wants cuts - but just not in anything they use.
