i been voting nothing but independent, and get told my vote is a waste
same as i did back in vegas. but independent is a party as well. no one running for any office should have any party affilation that is funded by anyone other than himself. if he get's any money from anyone or any organization it should be taxed as ordinary income (all of it) than they should have there voting record (if they have one) determine his political ideals. liberal, conservitive, commie, socialist etc
lol. u guys prob have all of these gravy train jobs as well.. htf do you let even cities get away with shit like this. live time retirement jobs are a crock of shit.... BELL, Calif.-- Three administrators whose huge salaries sparked outrage in this small blue-collar suburb of Los Angeles have agreed to resign, the City Council said Friday. Council members emerged from an hours-long closed session at midnight Friday and announced that they'd accepted the resignations of Chief Administrative Officer Robert Rizzo, Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia and Police Chief Randy Adams. Rizzo was the highest paid at $787,637 a year -- nearly twice the pay of President Barack Obama -- for overseeing one of the poorest towns in Los Angeles County. Spaccia makes $376,288 a year and Adams earns $457,000, 50 percent more than Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck. The three will not receive severance packages, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday. Rizzo will step down at the end of August and Spaccia will leave at the end of September. Adams will also leave at the end of August, after completing an evaluation of the police department, the Times said. "I'm happy that they resigned but I'm disappointed at the pension that they're going to receive," said Ali Saleh, a member of the Bell Association to Stop the Abuse or BASTA. Rizzo would be entitled to a state pension of more than $650,000 a year for life, according to calculations made by the Times. That would make Rizzo, 56, the highest-paid retiree in the state pension system. Adams could get more than $411,000 a year. Spaccia, 51, could be eligible for as much as $250,000 a year when she reaches 55, though the figure is less precise than for the other two officials, the Times said. Saleh said the crowd applauded after the announcement but immediately yelled out questions about what would happen to the council members. Four of the five of them are paid close to $100,000 annually for part-time work. When the crowd's questions were not answered, they shouted, "Recall!, Recall!" Revelations about the pay in Bell has sparked anger in the city of fewer than 40,000 residents. Census figures from 2008 show 17 percent of the population lives in poverty. Enraged residents have staged protests demanding the firings and started a recall campaign against some council members. "Woo-hoo, the salaries. Wow. What can I say? I think that's unbelievable," Christina Caldera, a 20-year resident of the city, said as she stood in line at a food bank. Caldera, who is struggling after recently losing her job as a drug and alcohol counselor, said she generally was satisfied with the way the city was being run but felt high-paid officials should take a pay cut. "What are they doing with all that money?" she asked. "Maybe they could put it into more jobs for other people." Attempts to leave messages seeking comment from Rizzo and Spaccia failed because their voicemails were full. A message left for Adams was not immediately returned. The county district attorney's office is investigating to determine if the high salaries for the council members violate any state laws. The City Council also intends to review city salaries, including those of its own members, according to Councilman Luis Artiga and Mayor Oscar Hernandez. "We are going to analyze all the city payrolls and possibly will revise all the salaries of the city," Artiga said. However, both men said they considered the City Council pay to be justified. "We work a lot. I work with my community every day," the mayor said, as he shook hands with and embraced people leaving the food bank Thursday. Council members are on call around the clock, and it is not uncommon for them to take calls in the middle of the night from people reporting problems with city services, Artiga said. Though many residents are poor, Hernandez said they live in a city they can be proud of, one with a $22.7 million budget surplus, clean streets, refurbished parks and numerous programs for people of all ages. He pointed proudly down a street to a park filled with new exercise equipment. When Rizzo arrived 17 years ago, Hernandez said, the city was $13 million in debt and on the verge of bankruptcy. Rizzo obtained government grants to aid the city, the mayor said. Rizzo was arrested near his home in Huntington Beach in March and charged with misdemeanor drunken driving. He pleaded not guilty and is due back in court for an Aug. 5 hearing, said Farrah Emami, a spokeswoman for the Orange County district attorney's office. The Los Angeles Times reported the salaries last week, prompting a large protest Monday at City Hall in which residents shouted and demanded that Rizzo be fired.
Neat thread pops! Thanks for all your work on this!
I've been trying to figure out how much a half-point is worth when it comes to betting baseball props. I just posted a thread about it but maybe I should have posted here instead?
Basically if Team X over 7.5 runs is +100, I'd like to know what the fair value of Team X over 7 runs is? How about Team X over 6.5 runs?
I have no idea where to even begin with this, but I'm sure there must be a mathematical answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best of luck through the rest of the season!

Pops, these people are greedy pigs that need to be slauthered. The pension systems were never designed for people to make more money or close to it then when they were working. You have people in pension systems who might earn 50k a year working but in their last couple of years they boost their yearly pay by working everybodys overtime to well over 100k, which then in turn boosts their pensions thru the roof. These jerkoffs dont realize that by doing this they are busting the pension systems and causing them to go broke. They dont realize that their employers have been paying into the system at a lower rate for their last 25-30 years of working. It doesnt take a math major to figure out what is going to happen to pension systems if your paying in one dollar and guys are taking out 2 or 3 because of their greed.
Biggest problem right now in politics is all the greed and corruption taking place. The number one thing that needs to be done to clean up alot of these crooks, is term limits. Our govt was never founded with the belief that people would work for the govt for a lifetime, earning massive amounts of dollars and power along the way. Our founding fathers always wanted people to work for their govt for a few years then go back to their real jobs, not work a lifetime. Get term limits and all these crooks lose their power bigtime.
Its really sickening to see the salaries of what those people were being paid, just sickening.

term limits will help, but as long as you have political parties (dems and repu) as strong as they are nothing is ever going to happen to help the process as they will never put theirselfs out of jobs. and everything is dont to protect the political machines. they are so much stronger than the largest corp in the world ever were (but at least corp provides jobs and work for people) parties only create jobs for there chosen few that help them grow stonger
