    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=488">What A City</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 6358<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> Aug&nbsp;15&nbsp;2016 at 10:46am<br /><br />All "declaring an emergency" which only requires one reading and quickly expedited through. Doesn't matter though. All legislation is just shoved through for show. Nothing is ever argued or questioned. Nothing is ever investigated by any council member. Hasn't been since Laubach left and when Scott-Jones first appeared on council. Both, quickly quieted with the questions. Both told to "fall in line" to rubber stamp that which they are told to rubber stamp. No mavericks allowed. No outside the box thinking allowed. Just sit and speak when we squeeze your head councilmembers. <br /><br />How does it feel to be totally subserviant and treated like a trained monkey with no thought process necessary? <br /><br />Mercy people. How can you look yourself in the mirror and feel good about what is transpiring? You are allowing yourself to be used by the Mulligan's of the world. Time to stand on your own two feet and do the job properly, don't you think?.......if not for you, then do it for the people.]]>
