I don't understand this...

All States, Counties and cities are having budget crisis. They are short of revenue and forced to cut services ... or are they?

There is a small part near out office called Highland Park. There are two baseball fields and little play area. I walk my dog here every morning. It is groomed very nicely. On any weekday, there is always somebody at this park from the city or a private contractor doing something. They put irrigation system earlier this year and new fence around the baseball field. Now they just replaced old lighting system with new ones.

I drove by Bellevue College this morning. Their baseball field does not have night game facility like this little park in Bellevue. Honestly, I have hardly ever seen anybody playing game at night at this park anyway. Why do they need new lighting system?

I rather see one more teacher, policeman or firefighter keep his/her job.
