Around here there has been a dramatic upswing in code enforcement fines. They’ve cut down the time allowed for a yellow light at the intersections with cameras. They hired more cops who look like teenagers and positioned them on what were major thoroughfares where they lowered the speed limit to 25 mph. Several other places they reduced the speed limit by 10 mph for very short distances, but only where its easy to hide. My county has a $500k budget item marked income from code enforcement. If they don’t get that money they have to lay off. There are so many codes that many of us are in violation and have no idea we are.

Maybe. I don’t think the public sector is in any danger. But, that’s what this article is about- whining that they SHOULD be exempt from any down turn in the economy.
