The week has started again with the usual madness that has plagued the City. It seems that the county, with their current budget is very similiar to the City. It is an out of focus lens. Instead of cutting his own budget and making "sacrifices" he cuts programs like the one hot meal a day for seniors, and more recently the 4-H program that is about to celebrate its Centennial (100 years).
Unlike the hot meal for the seniors 4-H is a little less obvious to its intentions. There purpose is to educate and teach children from 5-18 years old. They teach them leadership skills and go out camping. Kinda like the really cool camp that your parents never sent you to.
But wait there MORE!
Not only will Miami-Dade make sure there is no food for the elderly, no leadership skills to the underprivileged, he is also making sure the whole Cooperative Extension Service Division is axed as well!
What does the CESD do? Silly things like teaching people about conservation, planting trees, and why water is so important in Miami.
