Thank you, Megan, for hearing me, and for hearing us. We can't help our communities in any direction, except by the graces of capricious governing people who seem to enjoy the fact that we're paying for it, and then some. The anger -- at the surface -- is better than burying it. It is more healthy to be pissed off if it means you have indignation in the right place. Once you give up, the anger has to have some outlet. We tax our resources in this way at our personal peril and at the community's peril (dead community tissue isn't good tissue). And that's just people who responsibly handle their rage and sadness. Many don't have those coping skills, so they're time bombs. All because it's funny to officials to stay out-of-touch and watch these dances. It's lucrative to the VFOIA defense bar who upload their partners' corporate defense ethics into these matters wholesale, despite there being diametrically opposite goals and objectives between fictional entities beholden to institutional investor shareholders to produce profit -- revenues minus costs, not transparency, and our government, which is beholden to "we, the people."
