City to be mothballed as budget cuts hit the bone - eviltoast

Jokes about Hamilton aside, this kind of sucks.

As someone who lives here it’s sad to see and I’ll get to pay for it through rates rises too!

    I think this is the sad reality much of my generation is facing. Things aren’t going to get better for us, but we can make it better for the next generation. One less fire to deal with, a bit better infrastructure, better chances to by a house… at the cost of our own limited opportunities.

      Yep it seems like it’s part of the human condition. All short term thinking, instead of considering how we’re impacting future generations.

      “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” Etc. etc.
