Philadelphia is broke

Wow. Philadelphia is looking at cutting 1000 police officers and 200 firefighters. According to the Mayor, the court system is facing a virtual shutdown over a 1.4 billion dollar deficit.

Does anyone have any idea how Philadelphia could save some money?

  1. Sounds like Philadelphia, and the town I live in, are not living up to their names! But actually rage against the meaning of their names!

    The War on Drugs (Plants and Adults), its out-of-control costs, and ever-escalating violence from cartels and officials sanctioned by our government is hardly an act of brotherly love, or holy faith! In fact it's the complete opposite!

    The War on Drugs is not rooted in love. And it sure isn't rooted in any faith in anything other than might-makes-right and "we're the ones with the guns and financial backing so what we say goes."
