GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE UNOBTRUSIVE

The voters have spoken and we now have four good people on the Costa Mesa City Council who seem to have a solid understanding of the proper role of government--it exists to help citizens, not hinder them.
And the help it offers should be in those areas where government does things best--fix the roads, make the city safe from criminals and do similar essential things.
Government should work to be like a good waiter in a restaurant; invisible, but doing the right job at just the right time in the most unobtrusive way possible. Somehow, in such a restaurant, your glass never gets empty, but you're almost never aware of it being filled.
JOIN THE TEN
Katrina Foley is always whining that she only sees the same ten people at every City Council meeting and that she'd like to see more people there.
Well, the CM PRESS is pretty sure that Foley includes us in the Ten and we agree with Foley.
We need a hundred more at each meeting just like the CM PRESS.
Constant vigilance is required to make sure crackpot lefties don't slip in more phony social programs for illegal aliens.
The way the lefties work in Costa Mesa is that they bring in small social programs and then expand them. If some of Foley's pals had their way, we'd have a new job center that would slowly morph into teaching English, and become a full service charity for illegal aliens.
AND WHAT ABOUT THOSE SHOPPING CARTS?
Come on City Council, get the stores to pick up their own shopping carts and stop making the citizens of Costa Mesa pay $ 40,000 per year to provide a pick up service for stores and illegal aliens.
