Sometimes it is easy to only think of ourselves.
At the BOCC Budget meeting on 6/18/13, another speaker and myself
stated that the lower income county employees, after five years without
a raise should have raises.
Today, I read that the Commissioners have agreed to give these county
workers a raise – I commend them on this decision.
Recently on television there was a minister named Rod Parsley who stated
that according to the United Nations Children’s Fund about 4 million
children are on the verge of starvation throughout the world, and that
for $18 – a child can be fed for one month.
It is even better when we think of others.
