And;

"Future Toledo Mayor Mike Bell, the former fire chief who would go on to beat Mr. Konop in last year's mayoral primary, sat with arms folded among old fire service colleagues and voiced his own disapproval"

His own dissaproval and yet the office holder now, is faced with difficult decisions, about cuts, city operations, making statements that the city finances are in shambles, and yet, presented with a chance to change, nope, not gonna do that.

Why, bother the present system is working so well, as we head to state take over.
