So it appears there will be a big tax break for us coming up. Pretty nice, but how about putting a few bills into paying for some more 911 phone responders?
I have had to call 911 four times this year, and all four times, no answer, just a recording telling us to not hang up. And then a wait, I would say on average 10 minutes.
A lot of good that does when you don’t have 10 minutes to wait.
