I am sure you have probably heard enough of this, but I just wanted to say a few things that may interest you. I live in the Greenbriar addition on the dead-end street of Acacia. So far this year the city has plowed this road two times with the extent of running a plow down it one time and backing out.
This is not my concern; the main thing is the Anderson Community Schools can spend money clearing a parking lot, of all snow, for a building that has not been used this year.
I thought maybe it was a fluke, but each time there is any snow they clear the former Greenbriar School out totally. I understand the need to clear the entryway, in case of a fire or another emergency, but why the city cannot spend the money on clearing the addition out more than running a truck with a plow one time down a street.
I know there is nothing that the paper can do on this issue, but in these times of tight budgets, why is money spent where it is not beneficial to any city resident?

Letter: Consumer-driven economy will pay off debt
To save America some money — by acclimation of course — let’s not have a presidential election in 2012. We already have a good president who will do his best to kill all Republican bills (DOA) and, consequently, create more good-paying jobs in the $30 per hour range.

Letter: Gingrich cashes in on political amnesia
Rasmussen says that Romney has flattened nationally. Why?
Two reasons seem to tell the tale. Gingrich has shown that he will fight, and Romney is a Mormon, believed to be a “cult” by a majority of evangelicals. -
Letter: Hiring Winkler not wise spending
As a taxpayer I want to know that my taxes are being spent wisely. Hiring Greg Winkler at a salary of $126,000 is not wise spending.

Letter: Bill of Rights being nullified by new law
President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act on New Year’s Eve. I doubt many Americans noticed its implications because they do not yet comprehend the big picture. This law, coupled with the Patriot Act, is paving the way for America’s direction toward tyranny.

Letter: Blame the voters for our Congress
Why is insider trading legal for Congress and illegal for the rest of us? They make and enact laws for all of us, but then exempt members of Congress. Somehow this doesn’t seem to pass the smell test.
