The Citizens of Bell, California are Pissed Off….and GOOD FOR THEM! – $800k for a City Manager? – That is OUTRAGEOUS and the City Manager and His Co-Government Workers in Bell Should Be Fired and Thrown Out on Their Ears! – Is This An Isolated Case With Government Workers Gone Wild in Bell, California – No Way in Hell! – Waste is the NORM In Government Work! – Ronald Reagan Was Right…”Government Is the Problem!”

The Madness that is the City of Bell, California may be heading towards a resolution, but don’t think the taxpayers of California won’t be stuck with the bill for the foolishness in this small Southern California city for decades to come!

After it was reported by the Los Angeles Times earlier this week that the city manager of Bell was making almost $800,000 a year the residents of Bell, California have been up in arms and we say…

GOOD FOR THEM!

 

It’s about time the folks in Bell, California and the rest of America got royally pissed off at these Buffoons on all levels of government that are stealing the American People Blind!

Here’s the latest from the Los Angeles Times…

Bell council seeks resignations of 3 city officials

“Bell City Council members are seeking the resignations of the city manager and two other top officials amid growing public outcry over salaries that appear to be among the highest in the nation, according to three sources close to the discussions.

The embattled council directed its attorney to immediately begin negotiating with the three.

At a closed-door meeting Monday night, as hundreds of residents protested outside, council members also discussed reducing their own pay. Most of them make $100,000 a year.”

City council members making $100K a year?  OUTRAGEOUS!

The LA Times continues…

“Resigning would make City Manager Robert Rizzo, Police Chief Randy Adams and Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia eligible for lucrative pensions. But the three also have contracts that protect them from being fired without cause.

As a result, unless they agree to resign, the city would face the prospect of buying out their contracts, which could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional payments.

None of the three officials could be reached for comment Tuesday.

Rizzo earns nearly $800,000 a year, making him the highest paid city manager in California and possibly the nation. Adams makes $457,000 — 50% more the Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck — and Spaccia makes $376,288, more than the top administrator for Los Angeles County.

The salaries, revealed by The Times last week, sparked protests in the small, predominantly working-class town southeast of downtown Los Angeles.

The sources, who spoke to The Times on the condition that they not be named because of personnel rules, said attorneys for the city are in talks with attorneys for the three administrators.”

Oh, that’s just great!  All three of these clowns that have been ripping off the people of Bell, California for years are “eligible for lucrative pensions!”

Yes, California is the Bizarro-Land with Bell, California being “Let’s rip off the poor Latinos because we can” Bizarro-community!  OUTRAGEOUS!

Read these lines from the LA Times story and get ready to be really pissed off!

“Some activists have called for an outside investigation or audit of the city’s salaries. At least one council member said he was unaware of the pay levels for senior administrators until he read about them in The Times.

Rizzo’s salary has grown steadily over the years, once going up 49% in a single year. His current contract calls for 12% pay hikes every July.”

What?  49 percent pay raise in one year!  12 percent pay hikes every July?

Can you say that these Clowns in Bell should not only be fired but by all rights should be throw in jail for stealing from the citizens of Bell, California and from the People of California because these Buffoons are going to be “eligible” for pensions worth hundreds of thousands annually each for years to come? (Check out the CalPERS $100,000 Plus former state workers list that are hauling down big bucks in retirement!)  Why, yes we can say that and that is what would HAPPEN if Government actually Gave a Damn about the people it was supposed to be serving!

Yes, these Bastards should be fired and throw out on their ears, but like everything else in California when it comes to “Government Work” it is the Government Workers STICKING IT TO the People of California and laughing all the way to the bank as they do it…with the unions laughing right along with them at the boobs in the public that allow all this BS to go on!

Oh, you think this is an isolated story on Government Workers stealing from The People?  Please, local news stations in California do stories all the time on the amount of money that is flat-out being stolen from the People of California by workers not doing their jobs and here is a recent story by CBS TV 2 in Los Angeles on that very subject:

Investigative Report Exposes Possible City Slacker

Read the story and watch the accompanying video and then look at your children and grandchildren and see their future being given away by the Buffoons in Government!

As Ronald Reagan said…. “The Problem IS THE GOVERNMENT!”  Truer words have never been uttered…..EVER!
