"Should be" is one thing but "will be" is quite another.
As long as we have people like Perkins and Matheny on council, Alston on the commissioners' podium, and the unholy alliance of the identity agenda crowd with the Buy It/Zone It/Pave It/Build It team, we will not see any change.
"Business As Usual" has its built-in self perpetuation down pat.
I intend to propose these ethics rules at Greensboro City Council and Guilford County Commissioners meetings and recruit as many others who would like to participate as possible.

There are also issues with people trading votes. It doesn't matter if you abstain from voting for something in which you have a financial interest, if you've lined up the votes you need by promising to return the favor on other items.
Absolutely Bob, therefore if the opportunity to game the system can be eliminated, the playing field could be more level for companies looking to move or expand here, a less corrupt government should creating more jobs for our kids etc…
