The monstrosity of County, Cities, Towns, Villages, School Districts, etc. must end. Too many governments pointing fingers at each other for the overall high taxes and lack of results when the hands are all in taxpayers' pockets. Mandates, an excuse used repeatedly, but only the residents and businesses face their consequences as they are at the bottom of the feeding chain and they are feeding too many governments.
