I hope these people will remember at election time that Trueworthy is on the record as saying he doesn't believe they have a right to be heard--in other words--he couldn't care less about their opposition to this measure, or probably any other radical extremist measure he will want to shove down your throats in the future.

Mr. O'Brien won the mayor's office on a promise to get tough with out-of-town property owners who rake in rents -often government-paid Section 8 money - for dilapidated and neglected properties. But the proposal to levy a surcharge on some landlords' rental income drew protests from property owners who said they're not part of the blight problem -and don't want to be punished for it.
Alderman Roy Centeno's subcommittee conducted the public hearing on rental fees that drew some 50 people in attendance and many leaders of the previous Republican administration showed up for the first time since O'Brien's Democratic-Liberal-Socialist-Plantation ticket won a massive victory last November. Former council members Mark Biernacki and former Corporation Counsel Attorney Gennaro Bizarro criticized the rental fee proposal, and former Mayor Timothy Stewart sat in a back row applauding the many comments from property owners.
Some of folks on welfare who are receiving state and federal government monthly checks and other subsidies are putting a drain on the taxpayers. This also includes illegal immigrants who work off the books, pay no taxes and benefit from the system, such going to the emergency rooms for free health care, etc.
We need a serious overhaul of our welfare system! People come to U.S.A. from all over the world, both legally and illegally, and the illegals actuate benefits that our government has created for its tax paying citizens.
We need to support folks who retired and collect social security and medicare, because in general they have paid into the system over their life time of employment and are entitled to their senior citizens benefits.
