Bitter Pills Don’t Need Added Guilt
This comment by Commissioner Kevin Kenerly is just the latest example of the public relations nightmare that has been our county government’s march toward a final 2009 budget and tax rate. Gwinnett Daily Post Editor Todd Cline opines on Kenerly’s comments in this editorial.
"I’m asking everyone … to sacrifice for the county on (a) movie ticket and one Diet Coke (a month) to protect every citizen of the county," Kenerly said last week. "To me, I think that’s a minimum price to ask to get us to where we need to be. … People have to get their head out of the sand and not just think about themselves all the time."
