The Fort city government turns a blind eye to said statute and violates the law with impunity. A city government insider opined the city didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have time to police businesses they hire.<span>&nbsp; <\/span><\/li>\n<li>In 1986 a law was passed in Arkansas making English the official language. Gov. Bill Clinton signed this law making it official in 1987. (Arkansas Code Annotated, Section 1-4-117: Official Language 1987)\n<ol>\n<li>Fort Smith Ark. Mayor Ray Baker proclaims English as the official language in 2007.<\/li>\n<li>There are at least 4 different ethnicities in Fort Smith who demand their native language be utilized in government transactions, i.e. food, shelter, meds, hospitals, etc. Most not mandated by the federal government. <\/li>\n<li>To make the above statement ring in the ears of the deaf &amp; stupid, Barbara and I were in the Sebastian County Courthouse to vote today where there were more Hispanics coming and going into the courthouse who could not speak English, than there were American citizens. <span>&nbsp;<\/span>These uninvited nesters knew exactly where to go to get their criminal unearned largesse dispensed by the equally criminal government employees.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Who says they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re \u00e2\u20ac\u0153hiding in the shadows\u00e2\u20ac\u009d?<\/li>\n<li>In an exaggerated effort by the Fort Smith city government to pass a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Hamburger Tax\u00e2\u20ac\u009d or \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Employee Tax\u00e2\u20ac\u009d to bailout the $33 million failed Convention Center, the city again attacks the economic producers of the city. An abbreviated assessment of city revenues reveals that income for the city from tax revenues was $106 million with $103 million expenditures\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6a $3 million surplus in 1998.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>In year 2008 revenues were $247 million, with spending at $214 million leaving a surplus of $33 million for that year alone.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Where is it?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li>Next comes another corrupted &amp; bloated system, the Fort Smith school district, e.g. offering a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153feeding program\u00e2\u20ac\u009d for free breakfast &amp; lunch for any child from 1 to 18 yrs of age.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Not one word from the self-serving, parasitic bureaucratic &amp; political community.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Their mantra=Grow the Government!

Particularly when many recipients are not legal citizens.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Remember, Gooden\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the guy who said \u00e2\u20ac\u0153we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll take all we can get\u00e2\u20ac\u009d in reference to illegal aliens.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Why?<span>&nbsp; <\/span>More expansion and funding.<span>&nbsp; <\/span><\/li>\n<li>Another in line at the trough is Chancellor Paul Beran, Fort Smith\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s own fundraising clone of Pastor John Hagee. <span>&nbsp;<\/span>Beran\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s shill in the UAFS budget department is Mark Horn.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Beran and Horn have raised next year\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s budget by $3.13 million.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Herein lies the fuzzy math.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>Horn projects a 3% growth in the 2010-2011 fiscal period, yet he and Beran have increased the budget by 5.74% and they sign off on the robbery by stating \u00e2\u20ac\u0153they won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know the actual numbers until well into the year\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<span>&nbsp; <\/span>What happens to the money if their fuzzy projections don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t materialize? <\/li>\n<p><\/span><\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\">The Fort Smith city government, over the years, has inflated its budgets which produces huge surpluses at the end of each fiscal year.&nbsp; As already pointed out, 2008 produced a $33 million surplus.&nbsp; Why then is this city administration fanning the flames for another tax increase?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\">The Mayor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s projected slush-fund for FY 10 is $246, 330.00.&nbsp; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\">What say the citizen Jury?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\">Kindest regards,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\">Joe McCutchen<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\">Fort Smith<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 24.6pt;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All governments are cancerous\u00e2\u20ac\u201dunfortunately the only means these cancers can be eradicated is the application of chemo-therapy to the cancerous cells in all government\u00e2\u20ac\u201delected and unelected.
