This is 'redneck' country. Some of our million $ CEOS, and out of control city governments could take a lesson from these people.

Last week, Rush Limbaugh talked about a study proving 'conservatives' give more than liberals. This is more support for that notion.

I agree.

Although I think this city’s employees are doing this to hedge against possible layoff’s later..

Now.. if we could get the other cities in Oregon to do this....

The decision is expected to save the city at least $87,000.

Are they sure? Better watch and see where this money ends up . . . .

Great, now if they can eliminate 10 percent of the city positions, to keep in step with the private sector, in an effort to reduce the intrusive tax burden.

Never happen here in New York. Wish we could replace Bloomie with someone who knew how to cut government, not grow it.

Grants Pass just had a huge turnover on the city council.

Too bad the county government is so corrupt...

That's because on the whole, we love our country and we are able to see outside of our own desires, whereas liberals tend to act more like misanthropes.
