The village of is over budget and broke, the state of is urging emergency measures and a plan to make it through the fiscal year, and special meetings are scheduled next week.

The small municipality (pop. 1,500 or so) has been plagued with problems for a long time.

The recently released financial for 2021-22 presents a sobering portrait of town hall.

Democracy in America is not exactly dead because I think it was never even born. Representatives are elected by gerrymandering and corrupt campaign financing and then they represent their donors, lobbyists, and corporations instead of their constituents.

It should be plain to see that this isn't a democracy or even a republic. This shit needs to be redesigned. I know we can do better. It's the year 2023 ffs.

The dumpster fire we are witnessing now has been smoldering for years, if not decades.
It is what happens when people elect who actively the idea of
It is what happens when people rack up victories with Fox News rants and not legislation.
It is what happens when a quest for power means you’re willing to yield and appease everyone and everything that can help you secure it.

Early in the pandemic, i got started on audiobooks proper, and randomly picked this one: "Smell Detectives: An Olfactory History of Nineteenth-Century Urban America" by Melanie A. Kiechle, which at that time, only just came out the year before.

I don't see it figure much in recommendations but I found it to be an illuminating episode in the history of public health. Essentially, as germ theory proved itself over 'miasma theory', the presence of the public as an informed stakeholder began to diminish, because 'bad smells' can be dismissed as a legitimate cause of complaint (since it's not necessarily 'diseased'). You can draw a straight line from that shift to how industrial pollution crept into housing areas as well as 'civilian' individuals losing their civic influence in local government.

Anyway, I did actually review this (i should review more ): moreofacomment.my/wp/2021/07/0

Good morning, and welcome back from the holiday to observing US folks! hcommons.social is up and running smooth as silk, I’m happy to report. Our apologies once again for the bumps (and losses) we experienced in the transition to our new server environment. Now that we’re settled in, I’m turning my attention to some questions of community . I’m looking into Loomio as a suggestion and decision-making platform, but I’d love to hear if there are more suggestions out there!
