San Diego city leaders decided it was okay to raise your water rates…. Great another extra cost on top of all the other extra cost… notice the gas prices are slowly creeping up??? What makes the water rate increase hard to swallow its is based in part on the fact that residents are using less water, thanks to the city’s efforts to reduce water usage. Now that the water utility is making less money because they are selling less water they have to raise the rates to make up the difference…. Man you just can’t win with these guys.
While the City of National City is going broke the city council and mayor decided it was time to give give themselves a raise… it must be nice to be raise your salary whenever… whatever happened to leading by example????

To become an elected official all you have to do is be 18, a citizen, live in the district, and get one more vote than the next guy… Other then that there is no other job qualification… when politicians do make decisions this is of course why we have such things as energy deregulation which allowed Enron to rip off the State for billions…. That was a fine example of politicians making a decision…
