Missing Resources

Leo Mitchell

I heard on the radio yesterday that Long Beach has the worst roads in LA county. I guess we need to raise the sale tax to produce enough money to fix the streets. Oh wait ... we did that recently. Our smiling mayor and City Council touted the sales tax as a way to fix the roads. What happened to all that money? I wonder if the self-serving Democrats that run the city spent it on the unpopular road diet on Broadway and all the bicycle lanes in the city that hardly anyone uses and other pet projects.

When are the voters going to wise up to politicians that make all kinds of promises they very seldom keep just to generate revenue to spend it as they please? These charlatans need to come up with honest answers and not more lies. We need to have an audit to find out where all these “resources” went.
