The other set of books is the CAFR or comprehensive annual financial report which is hidden. A city the size of Austin probably has a $1,000,000,000 slush fund that they have literally stolen from the taxpayers. These bureaucrats invest these funds on Wall St where they are affectionately known as "Rubes." Goldman Sachs will fly them into the big city on a private jet, ferry them around in limosines, put them up at the Plaza Hotel, give them tickets to Broadway shows, $8,000 bar tabs at Scores gentleman's club, wine and dine them at the most exclusive restuarants and all the while, pitching them on great investment ideas. Like AAA mortgage backed securities, you know, the securities that brought down the countries of Libya, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Germany, England, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, France and now, the USA. These Rubes, lost their own pensions and the pensions of all the public employee's, like the firemen, police, teachers, public utilities workers and so on. So now you understand, the need for austerity measures and the eventual need for more taxes. Google Austin, Texas CAFR or your own city's CAFR. They are posted on line by law.Miguel Grandehttp://gringodaves.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2666895657048195776.post-15272052732487444462011-04-16T13:12:38.655-05:002011-04-16T13:12:38.655-05:00and now the district is in full CYA modeand now the district is in full CYA modeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2666895657048195776.post-68794785981843532102011-04-16T13:11:42.715-05:002011-04-16T13:11:42.715-05:00on another subject, the revenue machine in brazori...on another subject, the revenue machine in brazoria county , namely pearland has issued 100's of criminal complaints regarding attendance,there are 2 criteria to file under, I have personal knowledge of 2 that were filed with no legal authority to file under 25.094 of the texas education code, this is a fraud upon the court..and had 2 dismissed by phone call because it did not meet the prerequsites to file..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
