Dear Ted:

That it was another Federal Mandate that was not completely paid for. It was more like 20% US 80% local. Federal Mandates raise local taxes by 200% over what they would be normally and the costs are very high since the US requires gobs of strict paperwork to boot so that costs go up five fold once for the service, 3/4ths for the paperwork on the service, and 9/16ths to the paperwork showing that you did your paperwork correctly, and so forth. It is madness. It overrules good state laws and systems that deal already with the problem for less overhead. The Federal Government runs like 50 programs that all do the same thing but require 100 different forms and 50 different sets of procedures some of which are totally opposite of some other sets. It has been estimated that Government pays 80 cents on each dollar towards overhead. That is the real waster of money.
