City Council Drafts Budget?
The headline is misleading. To suggest that the City Council is even capable of drafting a budget is laughable. They seldom read the entire budget. Not only voters are clueless about details of how government works but also elected officials who are paid to know, seldom do. Recall that not one US elected official read the boondoggle health care bill before it was passed and signed into law. The Spending Other People's Money Society has no cares for where it comes from, only where it goes to. As Shakespeare said (King Lear), "Ripeness is all."
