We all elect the same people but with different names or different parties.
Then there are the unfunded mandates. Find a real or imaginary problem, pass a law to fix it. But don't fund it.
The latest thing down below is the license plate scanners. Who pays for this? Are these something we need or just want?
What about the drones that NH has acquired. Each needs a trained pilot. And no mention of selling the airplanes that state authorities already have. Who pays for these?
We all have a regional SWAT team in addition to the state SWAT team. Why do we have to pay for both?
All officers cars have a fully automatic military M-16. All. Do we really need this with associated training for such. We still have the state authorities that have same. Why more? We are all paying for the state team, and paying for a local team.
No one has fixed the adequate education issue. Still bouncing around in Concord.
One county has a new bus service paid for by a short term grant and the state and the cities and towns. Yet we have local church volunteers that will drive anyone almost anywhere almost any time to almost any destination. Why a limited bus service paid for with local, county and state funds?
The list goes on and on.
