Corruption has come to light recently in our neighbor Cuyahoga County.
At Cleveland.Com The Plain Dealer tells us how another political appointee, public employee, or whatever you want to call the former chief lawyer for the North East Ohio Regional Sewer District is accused of taking $100, 000's in bribes.
Question every penny spent by local government and its agents, agencies, etc. Ask for documents. Go to meetings.
Challenge every proposed levy (be it roads, sewers, schools) and every fee (trash, etc.).
Watch closely.
