The County government is really arrogant

But of course if you've kept up this blog, you know that.

It seems that on Friday there were some protesters at the County Board meeting hoping to stop budget cuts (and thus, increase taxes). How did they get to the Board meeting? Take a guess:

Cook County taxpayers paid Friday to shuttle in demonstrators to support a tax hike.

Just before a county budget hearing, a van from the county-owned Provident Hospital dropped off pickets set to rail against job cuts proposed by the County Board.
