Fiscal Cliff? Let's Call Their Bluff
Posted on Dec 20, 2012
By Ellen Brown, Web of Debt
This article originally appeared at WebofDebt.com.
The "fiscal cliff" has all the earmarks of a false flag operation, full of sound and fury, intended to extort concessions from opponents. Neil Irwin of the Washington Post calls it "a self-induced austerity crisis." David Weidner in the Wall Street Journal calls it simply theater, designed to pressure politicians into a budget deal:
Yet the media coverage has been "panic-inducing, falling somewhere between that given to an approaching hurricane and an alien invasion." In the summer of 2011, this sort of media hype succeeded in causing the Dow Jones Industrial Average to plunge nearly 2000 points. But this time the market is generally ignoring the cliff, either confident a deal will be reached or not caring.
The goal of the exercise seems to be to dismantle Social Security and Medicare, something a radical group of conservatives has worked for decades to achieve. But with the recent Democratic victories, demands for "fiscal responsibility" may just result in higher taxes for the rich, without gutting the entitlements.
Square, Site wide
The problem is that no deal is going to be satisfactory. If we go over the cliff, taxes will be raised on everyone, and GDP is predicted to drop by 3%. If a deal is reached, taxes will be raised on some people, and some services will be cut. But the underlying problems – high unemployment and a languishing economy – will remain. More effective solutions are needed.
Be Careful What You Wish for: Fiscal Hostage-Taking Could Backfire
Taxpayers and governments that are pushed too far have been known to resort to more radical measures, and there are some on the table that could fix the problem at its core. Here are a few that are receiving media attention:
1. A financial transactions tax. While children's shoes and lunchboxes are taxed at nearly 10%, financial sales have so far gotten off scot-free. The idea of a financial transactions tax, or Tobin tax, has been kicked around for decades; but it is now gaining real teeth. The European Commission has backed plans from 10 countries — including France, Germany, Italy and Spain — to launch a financial transactions tax to help raise funds to tackle the debt crisis. Sarah van Gelder of Yes! Magazine observes that the tax would not only help reduce deficits but would hit the highest income earners, and it would cool the speculative fever of Wall Street.
Simon Thorpe, a financial blogger in France, cites figures from the Bank for International Settlements, showing total U.S. financial transactions of nearly $3 QUADRILLION in 2011. Including other sources, he derives a figure of $4.44 QUADRILLION. Even using the more "conservative" $3 quadrillion figure, a tax of a mere 0.05% (1/20th of 1%) would be sufficient to raise $1.5 trillion yearly, enough to replace personal income taxes with money to spare.
2. The trillion dollar coin trick. If Republicans insist on the letter of the law, Democrats could respond with a law of their own. The Constitution says that Congress shall have the power to "coin money" and "regulate the value thereof," and no limit is put on the value of the coins Congress creates, as was pointed out by a chairman of the House Coinage Subcommittee in the 1980s.
I actually suggested this solution in Web of Debt in 2007, when it was just a "wacky idea." But after the 2008 banking crisis, it started getting the attention of scholars. In a December 7th article in the Washington Post titled "Could Two Platinum Coins Solve the Debt-ceiling Crisis?," Brad Plumer wrote that if Congress doesn't raise the debt ceiling as part of the fiscal cliff negotiations, "then some of these wacky ideas may get more attention."
Ed Harrison summarized the proposal at Credit Writedowns like this:
• The Treasury mints a $1 trillion coin, or whatever amount is desired.
Plumer cites Yale Law School Professor Jack Balkin, confirming the ploy is legal. He also cites Joseph Gagnon of the Peterson Institute for International Economics, stating, "I like it. There's nothing that's obviously economically problematic about it."
To the objection that it is a legal trick that makes a mockery of the law, Paul Krugman responded, "These things sound ridiculous — but so is the behavior of Congressional Republicans. So why not fight back using legal tricks?"
3. Declare the debt ceiling unconstitutional. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution mandates that Congress shall pay its debts on time and in full, and Congress does not know how much it will collect in taxes until after the bills have been incurred. The debt ceiling was imposed by a statute first passed in 1917 and revised multiple times since. The Constitution trumps it and should rule.

July 18 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stock-index futures climbed, following the biggest drop since April for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, as companies from Google Inc. to General Electric Co. reported earnings.
Google rose 2.1 percent in early New York trading after it posted revenue that exceeded analysts' estimates. GE gained 1.3 percent. Skyworks Solutions Inc. jumped 7.9 percent after forecasting higher fourth-quarter sales and earnings than analysts had projected. International Business Machines Corp. fell 1.4 percent after reporting that revenue dropped for a ninth quarter.
Futures on the S&P 500 expiring in September advanced 0.3 percent to 1,958.5 at 7:20 a.m. in New York. The equity gauge fell 1.2 percent yesterday, extending its weekly drop to 0.5 percent, on rising concern over tension in Ukraine and the Middle East. Dow Jones Industrial Average contracts rose 20 points, or 0.1 percent, to 16,961 today.
"There will be a greater level of uncertainty in the market today with yesterday's events in Ukraine," Nick Skiming, who helps manage $10 billion at Ashburton Ltd., said by phone from Jersey, in the Channel Islands. "The U.S. is in a good place right now, with positive results from several domestically-focused companies. The U.S. economy is moving along quite nicely. I'm expecting a modestly rising trend in sentiment as a result."
Ukraine Crisis
A Malaysian Airlines jet went down over eastern Ukraine yesterday, killing all 298 people on board, just a day after the U.S. and the European Union imposed further sanctions on Russia over the conflict. The United Nations Security Council will hold an emergency meeting over the incident today. The S&P 500 extended its losses yesterday after reports that Israel began a ground operation in the Gaza Strip.
The Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index, the gauge of S&P 500 options prices known as the VIX, rallied 32 percent yesterday, the most since April 2013, closing at 14.54, a three-month high.
A gauge of consumer sentiment probably rose this month. The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan's preliminary sentiment index advanced to 83, according to the median economist forecast in a Bloomberg News survey. It climbed to 82.5 in June. The Conference Board's index of U.S. leading indicators probably increased 0.5 percent in June, the estimates show.

Reviews for Landstuhl Hospital Care Project
My wife and I learned about LHCP when attending a service for a soldier killed in Iraq. We investigated the organization and spoke to Karen Grimond about her vision.
I was blown away by this woman's commitment. She works tirelessly for the organization. He doesn't recieve any compensation, and she often funds organization expenses from her own resources. I KNOW 100% of my dollars go to the mission of LHCP.
Karen is adament about providing only what wounded members of our armed services need at Landstuhl hospital and field hospitals. She has turned down donation of goods because the items were not what the doctors, nurses, and service members need. I KNOW that my dollars are going to be used to purchase items that will be used, not thrown away or given away.
Karen protects the confidentiality of those service men and women who are helped. Karen is the conduit between donors and members of our armed services so their privacy is protected. While this takes time, I KNOW that what I provide will get where it needs to go and the service members' idenity is protected.
This is a great organization to help support our men and women who were wounded while risking their lives for our security.

I've personally experienced the results of this organizations through reading letters of thanks for doctors, nurses and wounded service members who have been helped personally and who have seen others helped personally by LHCP.

I would like to add vcf files to the allowed file types to be able to show links to vcf files on employee presentation pages
I can't find where to change the list of allowed file types in WP single site
In WP multisite there is a whitelist in network admin -> Settings -> Network settings (Upload file types), but adding vcf to this list doesn't seem to change anything.
I am using W3TC cache plugin
So I really have 2 questions:
IF (WP multisite): Why doesn't my blogs react to adding vcf to the Upload file types list?
IF NOT(WP multisite): Do I really have to activate multisite on a single blog to get access to changing the Upload file list?

Sorana Cirstea advanced to her first final in five years by upsetting fourth seeded Li Na in straight sets at the Toronto WTA tournament on Saturday.
The Romanian Fed Cup player, who defeated world number 10 Caroline Wozniacki in the second round, beat China's Li 6-1, 7-6 (7/5).
The 23-year-old Cirstea cruised through the first set before Li jumped out to a 4-1 lead in the second.
Cirstea won five of the next seven games then clinched the semi-final victory on the third match point when a mistake-prone Li double-faulted on her serve.
Cirstea advances to face the winner of the other semi-final between top seed Serena Williams and world number four Agnieszka Radwanska.

Driving from Santiago de Cuba, near the eastern end of the island, all the way west to Havana, one passes through a score of towns and villages, none of which seems to have had a coat of fresh paint in the past half century. The ubiquitous shabbiness of today's Cuba is even more noticeable in Havana. Once one of the most beautiful cities in the world, today Havana is divided between the restored glories of Habana Vieja (plus the resort areas visited by tourists) and the rundown sectors where most of the people live. Even the patriotic billboards and murals of Fidel, Che, and the endlessly repetitive slogans look old and long neglected. With one exception: signs celebrating Los Cinco Héroes, the five "heroes" known in much of the rest of the world simply as "the Cuban Five." They were part of a spy network that reported to the Cuban Directorate of Intelligence on the activities of anti-Castro groups in the United States. In September 1998, ten members of this network were arrested in Florida and convicted of various crimes under U.S. law. Five of the accused pleaded guilty, but the Cuban Five fought the charges. The freshly painted names and faces of these men—who are serving their terms in U.S. jails—adorn buildings and billboards throughout Havana and other cities in Cuba.
One gets the impression that the cause of the Five is the Cuban government's most active propaganda ploy today. The economic...

OK guy's - no one is disagreeing here.Bosmans are OK if you choose quality i.e. Schmeicel, and yes if we are spending money it has to be spent smartly (although there is no guarantee how it will turn out). The best teams are always based on home grown talent as Revie proved all those years ago, but sadly the cream of the crop have been sold over the last few years, and what's left is not as good at the moment so we will have to wait for them to materialise.But if all you can do is sign Bosmans because no money is available then we are in trouble. Bates has not indicated how much if any money is available and that is the worrying factor. We must have made a fair few pennies since the liquidation, and although the club is on a better financial basis now, there must be a reasonable amount to spend.

1501 Lee Hwy Ste 140 Arlington VA 22209 USA
The RRCA's mission is to promote running as healthy exercise and as a competitive sport and to represent and promote the common interests of its member running clubs, running events, and individual runners through education, leadership, programs and other services.
The Kids Run the Nation Program is a multi-week, gender neutral, youth running program designed for children in grades kindergarten through sixth grade. The RRCA's vision is to see a locally managed, youth running program in every grade school in America. The Kids Run the Nation Program Guide is designed to help teachers, coaches, or program directors develop youth running programs that can be implemented as a physical education or classroom wellness curriculum, as a before or after-school program, or as a community-based youth running program.

Reviews for Road Runners Club of America Inc
We've been a member of the RRCA since our organization, the American Trail Running Association, was formed in 1996. We receive great support from the staff. We have enjoyed attending their annual convention and encourage others to get in on the action!

Annual Conference; staff interaction very positive; great insurance program.

See the RRCA at many more events.
RRCA has been representing the interests of runners for over 50 years and was instrumental in modernizing our sport in the early days. As a former runner and current road race director I rely on RRCA for advice on best practices for my events as well as insurance. One of my events has been selected as an RRCA state championship this year and I know that will increse our exposure and attract runners statewide. The leadership at RRCA has been very supportive of our efforts here in Massachusetts. I urge fellow race directors and club members to join me in supporting RRCA and attend the the RRCA National Convention in VA this spring.

RRCA is supporting our local efforts here in MA by sponsoring our runners expo in conjunction with Run Gloucester. They've also assisted in making an event I organize The End of Summer Classic a state championship which will attract additional runners and contribute to the competitiveness of the event.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Increase awareness of the organization here in New England by engaging with event organizers and other organizations to promote RRCA.
There are running events and then there are RRCA running events. For those who take the time to read and implement the RRCA event manual, an exceptionally good run will then be had by everyone participating, including those not running, suah as, the spectators, sponsors, race day officials and volunteers.

Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi (1893 - 1986)
Contributed by: Zaady
Research is four things: brains with which to think, eyes with which to see, machines with which to measure and, fourth, money.
Research is to see what everybody else has seen and to think what nobody else has thought.
Whatever a man does he must do first in his mind.
A discovery is said to be an accident meeting a prepared mind
Basic research may seem very expensive. I am a well-paid scientist. My hourly wage is equal to that of a plumber, but sometimes my research remains barren of results for weeks, months or years and my conscience begins to bother me for wasting the taxpayer's money. But in reviewing my life's work, I have to think that the expense was not wasted. Basic research, to which we owe everything, is relatively very cheap when compared with other outlays of modern society. The other day I made a rough calculation which led me to the conclusion that if one were to add up all the money ever spent by man on basic research, one would find it to be just about equal to the money spent by the Pentagon this past year.
Source: Albert Szent-Györgyi, The Crazy Ape, Grosset and Dunlap, New York, 1971, p 72.
Discovery is seeing what everybody else has seen, and thinking what nobody else has thought.
Our nervous system developed for one sole purpose, to maintain our lives and satisfy our needs. All our reflexes serve this purpose. this makes us utterly egotistic. With rare exceptions people are really interested in one thing only: themselves. Everybody, by necessity, is the center of his own universe. When the human brain took its final shape, say, 100,000 years ago, problems and solutions must have been exceedingly simple. There were no long-range problems and man had to grab any immediate advantage. The world has changed but we are still willing to sell more distant vital interests for some minor immediate gains. Our military industrial complex, which endangers the future of mankind, to a great extent owes its stability to the fact that so may people depend on it for their living. This holds true for all of us, including myself. When I received the Nobel Prize, the only big lump sum of money I have ever seen, I had to do something with it. The easiest way to drop this hot potato was to invest it, to buy shares. I knew World War II was coming and I was afraid that if I had shares which rise in case of war, I would wish for war. So I asked my agent to buy shares which go down in the event of war. This he did. I lost my money and saved my soul.
The real scientist . . . is ready to bear privation and, if need be, starvation rather than let anyone dictate to him which direction his work must take.
Here we stand in the middle of this new world with our primitive brain, attuned to the simple cave life, with terrific forces at our disposal, which we are clever enough to release, but whose consequences we cannot comprehend.

Irish beat Hornets in 2008 and 2010 playoffs
It's a regional final in Aurora that will have the fanfare of a state final in Massillon.
Defending Division V state champion Kirtland and four-time state champion Ursuline, it's a matchup everyone's been waiting to see.
Except the coaches.
"Any time you get this deep in the playoffs, you're going to play a good team," said Kirtland coach Tiger LaVerde. "It's no different than preparing for any other team. They just happen to be more talented."
While LaVerde and Ursuline coach Larry Kempe won't admit that these are the respective teams they had penciled in as Week 13 opponents, it's what many fans expected.
Kirtland (12-0) is coming off a 28-14 win over Crestview, a game that showed the Hornets' versatility.
Damon Washington, the 2011 Division V Offensive Player of the Year, is the centerpiece, but he didn't need to be last week. Sophomore Adam Hess ran for two touchdowns with 68 yards and Sam Kukura added 60 with a 25-yard TD run that secured the victory.
Throw in quarterback Scott Ellerman who's a dual threat and the Hornets average nearly 380 rushing yards per game.
"Last year, we played our best football in Week 15 against Coldwater," LaVerde said of the 28-7 title game. "Hopefully our best game this year is the one coming up."
Kempe was pleased with the improvement in his defense after a disappointing showing in the first round against Sugarcreek Garaway. The Irish limited Cuyahoga Heights to 99 rushing yards, the third time they've held a team to under 100 this season.
"Our secondary has gotten a lot better and we were able to blitz a lot and put great pressure on the Cuyahoga Heights quarterback," Kempe said. "We've also made great strides on special teams."
Kicker Vince Yurcho had a career day and set a school-record with 14 points. Yurcho had kicks of 30,32 and 33 yards and made all five of his extra-point attempts.
Kirtland averages 41.3 point, while Ursuline (8-4) averages 35. During the regular season, the Hornets' biggest win was 57-0 over Newbury and their closest game was a 20-18 win against Beachwood.
The Irish have scored 108 points in the playoffs, Kirtland has scored 77.
"You never know until you get into the game if it's going to be high scoring or low scoring," LaVerde said. "The game plan is to take advantage of another team's weakness, but with Ursuline there isn't much of a weakness."
Irish quarterback Chris Durkin has thrown for 241 yards in the postseason with two touchdown passes. He had long throws of 55, 38 and 20 against Sugarcreek.
Jermaine Williams and Tramain Thigpen have rushed for 326 and 201 yards in the past two games, respectively.
"Our offense has become very balanced," Kempe said.
While Ursuline is just three wins away from a fifth state championship, a regional title is the first piece of hardware needed to make up for last year's playoff absence.
"Kirtland is going to be the defending state champion until somebody knocks them off," Kempe said. "Hopefully it can be us."
I believe the only Division V team that can beat Ursuline is Ursuline.posted 3 years, 8 months ago
Geez, I wonder why??posted 3 years, 8 months ago
i hope Kirtland embarrasses them. But, the fact that Ursuline takes pride in winning Division V titles is embarrassing enough.posted 3 years, 8 months ago
My son Delon plays for the Irish. They are getting it together!
Coach Tiggy or whatever his name is at Kirtland is good though. He almost got us two years ago. We need to stop that run game.posted 3 years, 8 months ago
Go pens.....don't start crying about ursuline winning. They are doing great and jealousy will rear its ugly head. Until there are rules that say they are doing something wrong.....then they are playing by the book. Until u do something to change the rules then u don't have the right to complain. GO IRISH !!!posted 3 years, 8 months ago
toothless sounds like his team didn't make the playoffsposted 3 years, 8 months ago
Geez, I wonder why Ursuline is doing great. They should be forced to play at least D-3. How embarrassing for them and their fans to play D-5. A joke really.posted 3 years, 8 months ago
Getting beaten by a D5 public school is an even bigger embarrassment... I know, I know....the refs cheated. The refs let Ursuline get up by 24 pts....then met at halftime and decided Kirtland should win...then the Kirtland fans and parents were racist and poor sports....yeah, we've heard it all. All the excuses...cheating, racism, poor sportsmanship...quit with the excuses and admit that we were beaten by a team that is not as talented, but wanted it more.posted 3 years, 8 months ago
Do not speak negatively about this game unless you were there and witnessed all of the cheating. Let the children play the game. Taking three touchdowns aways from Ursuline and pushing them further and further away from scoring is not a fair game. It's not about excuses, it's about adult refs cheating for another team. Then to top it off, the racial slurring that took place after the game was the worst, as the children entered the locker room. If Kirtland felt they won fair and square, why taunt the children. Speak the Truth on this forum. NOT LIES>>>>>Doesn't matter who was playing that game, the refs had no right cheating in such a manner.. POINT BLANK>>>>>posted 3 years, 8 months ago
I was at the game. Ursuline blew a 24 point lead. That has nothing to do with cheating. The team fell apart and Kirtland wanted it more. Kirtland was outsized, but showed way more heart. And Ursuline - please - learn how to lose with class. You are supposed to be a Catholic school, but yet PARENTS were cussing at people in the parking lot. You did not show a very good side to your character. The racial slurs are being fabricated by Ursuline because they are so bitter that they lost. NOT ONE Kirtland player made any such remark. Kirtland's star player is African American and the community loves him. You should all be ashamed of yourselves for not knowing how to lose and trying to take away a great victory from a small town school.posted 3 years, 8 months ago

To the Editor.—
I read your Aug 23, 1985, article1 on hair analysis with great interest. For the past eight years, my colleagues and I have engaged in scientific research studying elemental concentrations in the hair of violent subjects,2 children with learning disabilities, and victims of Tourette's syndrome. The Health Research Institute has developed identical hair standards of known composition that (along with certified materials from the National Bureau of Standards) provide a foundation for our experiments. We have spent years testing the ability of commercial and research laboratories to perform a proper chemical analysis of human hair.There is no doubt that serious abuses of hair analysis are widespread in this country and that Stephen Barrett's topic is timely. Unfortunately, his experimental protocol includes a mistake that renders his data and conclusions valueless. His use of shoulder-length hair from teenaged girls represents a classic case of improper sampling.

The 19-year-old Liverpool star has earned rave reviews for his displays with the England squad in Brazil, despite a red card in the pre-tournament friendly against Ecuador in Miami.
Widespread press reports say Sterling starts at the expense of Southampton's Adam Lallana, amid speculation he will play a central role behind lone striker Daniel Sturridge, with Wayne Rooney shunted to the right flank.
Elsewhere England line up as expected, with Jordan Henderson given the nod ahead of Jack Wilshere to partner Steven Gerrard in central midfield.
Henry Winter tweets starting line-up
England's opponents Italy will be without their captain, the talismanic goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon who suffered an ankle injury in training.
Salvatore Sirigu of Paris Saint-Germain will deputise in goal, with Andrea Pirlo taking the captain's armband.
Italy had already lost left-back Mattia Di Sciglio - Giorgio Chiellini will shift across from the centre, with Gabriel Paletta coming into the side.

As has been pointed out by several other people....the only way that this makes sense is if the debt is materially reduced. I don't understand Buffet's strategy here...... but it does appear he may be angling to buyout LEE. I am considering taking a small speculative long position.....i need to do more research first.
Thats a good point.....I hadn't crunched the #'s but what you are saying does make sense. It all comes down to what the "assets" (papers) could be sold for and i do agree that they would be sold at a steep discount.
Perhaps he is buying the bonds. In either case he sees value here in the equity. Buffet always ties his bond purchases to ultimatly transform in to equity. Saved GS and BAC that way.
Here's a thought.What if he takes an activist role. Gets someone on the board. They paid billions for some of the assets. Sell off a paper or two and pay down a bunch of the debt.
Buffet has a long standing reputation for being the exact opposite of an activist investor.
He's not an activist investor. He either buys whole companies and buys equities in undervalued securities. Have you ever seen or heard of Buffet in a proxy war?
You can expect LEE to make a large pullback in the stock price just like what happened after the last "Buffett Rally". In fact I spoke to my neighbor today who cancelled their newspaper subscription delivered to their house. They said they didn't think they should have to pay for news anymore because news is general public knowledge available free, live, and uncensored on the internet.
Yes, and I don't have to worry about whether farmers can make a living because I buy all my food at the grocery store. Come on, folks, where do you think the vast majority of information on the Internet originates? Do you think it just magically appears on Google searches? Jeez!
"In fact I spoke to my neighbor today who cancelled their newspaper subscription delivered to their house"
LOL, sound investment thesis to be sure. My geek brother shops online people were dumbe to buy SPG at 25 because no one goes to the mall anymore to buy things.
My nieghbor said he shut the water off from the city because he can just walk across the street to the river and get what he needs for free, live, and uncensored. Im going to to that too I think
I dont know what Walt was thinking but I think it kisses 2 at least on this run. It is now known Buffet made purchases in the open market and doubled down on his position. It looks as the way the stock is trading its under accumalation again today
I'm considering taking a small speculative position as well. I cant understand why Buffet would make a buyout through small purchases of the common (rather than just making a single offer).....but I have to admit that the only reason would be for an eventual acquisition. As my 'ol granpappy used to say "when the facts change.....change your thesis".

Ohio Senate Bill 5, which would restrict collective-bargaining rights of 350,000 public employees, has added to the uncertainty in Mahoning County's labor negotiations.
But the new law isn't the only measure playing a factor in talks with many of the county's 17 collective-bargaining units.
The cumulative $40 million general-fund shortfall over 10 years of on-again, off-again sales taxes ending in 2005 prevented the county from establishing a rainy-day fund. It also forced the county to borrow more money than would have been necessary, said John A. McNally IV, chairman of the county commissioners, who took office in 2005.
There's also the local, state and national economy to contend with, and that will make negotiations a little harder.
"We're also just battling with the past four or five years and the recession across the country that's also causing us a lot of financial concerns," McNally said.
Internal issues also are at play.
The county does not have a human resources director to coordinate the county's side of the bargaining table, perhaps to seek common savings as each deal is worked out. Instead, individual department heads negotiate a deal, normally with the help of an attorney or law firm.
And commissioners fired the Columbus-based Downes, Fishel, Hass and Kim law firm March 10 because county workers complained that the firm was too involved in the creation of SB 5.
On the labor-union side of the bargaining table, there's pressure, too: Public employees want to complete contract talks before SB 5 takes effect, said Sam Prosser, president of Teamsters Local 377.
"That grandfathers them in," and protects the negotiated terms for the duration of the contract, he said.
The passage of a referendum to make permanent a half-percent sales tax in May 2007 assured the ongoing availability of $14 million annually in revenue to the county's general fund. In fact, after a salary analysis, hundreds of raises to county workers were awarded; 91 of them exceeded 20 percent or more.
The lush times would be short-lived.
In 2008, every major source of general-fund revenue — sales and property-tax revenue, state funding and investment income — went into in a recession-induced tailspin as unemployment rose in the Mahoning Valley.
Last year, the federal government stopped housing federal prisoners in the county jail, and Youngstown stopped paying for its prisoners. Combined income to the county from prisoners paid for by the federal and city governments fell from $4.31 million in 2008 to $2.96 million in 2009 to $634,900 in 2010.
After 17 consecutive months of decline compared to the same month in the previous year, sales- tax revenues began to recover in April 2010, McNally said. "We're not out of the woods by any chance, but we're starting to get a little bit better," he added.
Now, in the austere budget proposed by Gov. John Kasich, the county faces a loss of $1.2 million in state revenue to its general fund in the state fiscal year that will begin July 1. It could lose between $1.2 million and $2.4 million in the next fiscal year, depending how budget language is interpreted, McNally said.
The general-fund budget for this calendar year is $50.98 million, down 1.4 percent from $51.72 million in 2010.
"We see the erosion of the tax base in terms of ever-increasing foreclosures and vacant properties throughout the county," McNally said, referring to real estate taxes. Increased unemployment puts a further burden on the tax base, he added.
The impact, however, isn't limited to the general fund, which is the county's main operating fund supporting the courts, jail and many other central government functions.
The county engineer's office saw a $1.5 million revenue loss because of declining income from gasoline taxes and license-plate fees between 2008 and 2009, from which it still hasn't recovered, said Marilyn Kenner, chief deputy county engineer.
Under these circumstances, it's important for the county to seek every reasonable cost saving it can in labor negotiations, said county Auditor Michael V. Sciortino.
"What you have here is, I think, the great awakening, with the state of the economy, the state of Ohio, with its collective-bargaining issues," he added.
The county has 1,735 employees and 17 labor contracts. Of the 17 bargaining units, six are engaged in negotiations.
For departments under commissioners' control, "it would seem to make sense" that personnel policies and labor-negotiation matters be standardized, said Frances Lesser, executive director of the County Auditors' Association of Ohio.
She added, however, "The commissioners have the budgetary control."
In fact, the commissioners recently docked the budget of County Prosecutor Paul J. Gains $100,000 after expressing their displeasure with $220,000 in pay raises he gave in varying amounts to all 32 of his assistant prosecutors, who are not unionized.
McNally said he favors a more-unified approach to labor negotiations and to pay and benefits for county employees. He added the administration has a standard set of goals for all county departments in this year's labor negotiations covering wages, health care, pension contributions and overtime reductions. He declined to disclose them publicly.
McNally noted that coun- ty employees have agreed to major concessions, including unpaid days off, due to recession-induced declines in county revenue.
Many of the county's labor-union members have been working under terms of long-expired contracts, McNally noted. Looming state-funding cuts are "driving us back to the table" now, he added. "Our goal is not to lay off people. Our goal is to save money," and provide the best possible services to county residents, he said.
Commissioners are evaluating applications for the human resources director. They received 47 applications for that job by the March 11 deadline, and 18 applicants will be interviewed by commissioners Thursday and Friday.
McNally said he hopes the commissioners can vote by mid-April to hire the new HR director and that the new director can start work by mid-May.
"My first goal right now is to get a highly skilled and competent HR director in here ... so that some of these issues that we're paying outside folks to do can be done in house," McNally said. The county's last HR director, Susan Quimby, resigned May 30, 2009.
Although all county labor-union contracts come before commissioners for approval, the commissioners can't dictate the salaries paid to nonunion workers in county departments they don't control, such as the courts, McNally noted.
Also, Ohio law says county commissioners may establish a personnel department, and that any elected official, board or agency of the county may elect to use that department's facilities and services, but cannot be compelled to do so.
The county also has hired a management-consulting firm to replace the Downes law firm.
McNally said Clemans-Nelson & Associates personnel management consultants of Akron and Columbus will assist the county in labor talks at its Department of Job and Family Services and in the engineer's and sanitary engineer's offices.
Prosser's union — Teamsters Local 377 — represents employees of the county treasurer's office, drivers and mechanics in the county engineer's office, and supervisors and lawyers in the county's Child Support Enforcement Agency.
Prosser said labor unions "have to be more united."
SB 5 is an attack on unions in the public sector, but the effort to weaken unions won't end there, he said. "It'll move on to the private sector, and, before you know it, there'll be no middle class," Prosser said.
In current negotiations with the engineer's office, Prosser said his goals are to get eight laid-off Teamsters back to work and to get the bargaining unit under contract before SB 5 takes effect.
Kenner said the county engineer's department plans no further layoffs this year and would like to have the workers back.
"Our agenda, so to speak, is to work with the union to reduce our costs through [changes in] some of their benefits," Kenner said.
For example, instead of the current $150 annual cash allowance for boots and $500 for clothing, Kenner said she'll propose that her office issue uniforms and boots to the employees for an estimated savings of $80,000 to $100,000 a year.
Prosser was noncommittal about the union's response to that proposal. "That's all up for negotiations," he said.
Some of those who used to get the allowance were clerical workers who never left the office.
Also in negotiations is the sanitary engineering department, where members of an independent labor union have continued to work under terms of a contract that expired March 31, 2010.
In that office, Bill Coleman, office manager, said a key management goal is "to see how we can incorporate technology in our operations to maximize the performance of the employees." Coleman said, however, his office is not seeking to use technology to reduce staff.
In the sanitary engineer's office, John Michaels, union president, blamed the lack of progress in negotiations on what he said was a deliberate stalling strategy by the Downes law firm.
Coleman said, however, the talks were delayed by a study of the office's finances and that negotiations are expected to resume within the next two weeks with management using Clemans-Nelson.
In the sheriff's department, the 266-member Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 141, which represents deputies, ranking officers and civilian employees, has a contract expiring June 30, 2013.
Although it is not now negotiating, eight articles in its contract, including wages, promotions and vacations, are subject to reopener at the end of this year.
Sgt. Thomas J. Assion, lodge president, said his union, which has given back though concessions about 27 percent of its pay and benefits since 2008, doesn't expect to change its approach to negotiations.
"We realize the economic situation of this country, of this state and of the county," Assion said. He said his goal will be to "negotiate terms that will allow the maximum amount of employees to stay working and to keep the maximum amount of jail-bed space open."
Currently, 190 of 602 county jail beds are closed, and 48 deputies are laid off.
Retirements and resignations have reduced the sheriff's staff by an additional 36 people since March 1, 2010, said chief Deputy James Lewandowski. None was replaced, he noted.
One aspect of SB 5 that Assion finds disturbing is that, under his interpretation of the bill, it would deprive all supervisors, including ranking law-enforcement officers, of all their collective-bargaining rights.
Lodge 141's gold unit represents sergeants, lieutenants and captains.
"There will likely be a significant number of additional retirements in the rank and the file this calendar year," due to the changes that would be induced by SB 5 and by other proposed legislation on pension reforms, Lewandowski said.
"Though we perform actions on behalf of management, we do have our own issues that are labor-related," Assion said of supervisors.
"We have working conditions that we take issue with [such as shift times and training, equipment and staffing levels], and the only place that we're able to discuss those is at the negotiating table," Assion added.
McNally said he doesn't know what impact SB 5 will have before it takes effect — or after. The governor signed the bill into law Thursday.
"I don't know how that [new law] is going to affect our bargaining long-term because I expect that ... it's also going to be put on as a referendum," for a public vote, he said.
The county should just ignore the demands of these public employee unions and let SB5 go into effect. There is no reason to negotiate now with the unions when you can impose the solutions later under SB5. Make them pay the max defined under SB5 for their golden pension plans and cadillac healthcare plans. They can't strike or they be fired so the county now holds all the cards. The middle class taxpayer is the clear winner here if the county just follows the new 2011 Ohio Collective Bargaining Bill.
Why would school boards or county administrators negotiate anything right now? Once SB 5 goes into effect, and it will go into effect, the taxpayers will reap the rewards. Any administrator that agrees to negotiate now is no friend of the public or the taxpayers and should be held accountable for his or her actions at election time.
We certainly can't blame the unions for wanting to negotiate now. At this point in time they still have control of many of our weak-kneed administrators and department heads who, if SB5 is implemented, will have this burden(for which most are totally incapable of handling) removed from their shoulders and the unions will have to face a more qualified negotiator.
It sounds like some right wing freaks go to bed every night and have wet dreams of hurting the workers and little guys who will stand up for his or her rights. But remember the pendulum will swing back to the good side . And away from evil,
I am a county employee who would like to share some facts that people may not be aware of. I graduated from YSU, paid my own way, and got hired by the County without any connections. I have worked from 8 until 4:30 Monday through Friday for 19 years. I clock in and out when I come and go and for my 30 minute lunch. When I take time off, I use my sick or vacation time. I am a union member and have not had a raise – not even a cost of living – for five years. My health insurance copay has gone up and my PERS contributions have too. I am not complaining about these facts – I live in this County and know full well the state of economy. Concessions must be made. And while even I must agree that there are some overpaid County employees – mostly in management - not all of us are. So while I am grateful for the wonderful things about my job, I work hard for my money like many other County employees and pay the same taxes that private sector employees do. I just want people to know that there are hard working County employees making an average wage and making concessions.
I applaud you RubyGirl for your successes, I only want to question the amounts of your co-pays and the percentage you pay for your insurance in comparison to the private sector counter parts?
I find it odd that nobody wants to divulge that information though? I also know you do not pay anywhere near the 23-24% as most do and I even know some who pay almost half of their health insurance, with deductibles hovering to over $2500 for individual out of pocket on up to $5000 for family policies per year. Doctor visit deductibles are going up also, are you paying the $20-$40 like thee rest of us? I didn't think so. I will remind you that the average worker for the county does not make as little as the average taxpayer either, so consider yourself making better than average wages too. I hate to tell you that more concessions are in order to keep the tax levies off of the ballots.
Can we discuss the PERS contributions while we are at it, are you like most that do not pay anything into the retirement funds, as this is one of the pick up items?
If we have a pick up or what most private sector employers provide is a match to a contributions to their 40K and that usually is a modest 3-5%, not 14-24% that most public employees get.
I also need to remind you of the accumulated vacation and sick days perk is something that also needs addressing while we are at it. We just cannot afford that either.
So yes you should feel grateful for what you have, because the average or as I would say, most in the private sector do not have anything that your average provides, not even close.
It is not that we hate you or your fellow public workers we do not understand how we can provide such largess when we just do not have anything close to what you are getting from the taxpayers and every time we turn around we are being asked for more.
First of all, ytown, thanks for not bashing me. The things you bring up are exactly the things I am thankful for - a modest copay and partial PERS pickup. They are also the things that will most likely be changing in our next contract. So not only are we not asking for more, we expect a continued pay freeze, increased copays and PERS contributions. Again, a sign of the times and no surprise to anyone.
With all of the hoopla over Ohio Senate Bill 5 and negotiating the big question remains . Who negotiates for the taxpayers ? At election time far too many have short memories and have forgotten where the financial pain was coming from . Get the scorecard ready and lets do a clean sweep at election time ! After all it your money since you earned it but they want to take it all now !
For those who champion others liberty to tax more of less show your support and get one today !
Yes RubyGirl, these are the times we live in, do you know most self employed business owners had their health insurance go up over 30% this year alone? We chose to only pay a 19% increase but we had to increase doctors visit co-pays to $25.00, Emergency Room deductible is now $500.00, and the per person out of pocket is now $2500.00 per person for a 3 person total of $7500.00 per year.
I know of no one in the public employment that had to make those decisions, do you?
And yes we are grateful to still be in business like you are to be employed, but we do not see the past economies coming back anytime soon, and there has been a lot of concessions on the part of us owners and the employees we appreciate every day. Have a nice day.

Fire damages Rutland City homeStaff Report | November 10,2013A fire caused heavy damage to the rear of a single-family home Saturday night in Rutland City.
No one was home at the time of the fire, which was called in at about 7:15 p.m.
City Fire Lt. Brad LaFaso said four trucks were dispatched and firefighters met with heavy smoke coming out of the rear of the house when they arrived at 15 Hopkins St.
It took about 30 minutes to extinguish the fire, LaFaso said.
They got it down pretty quick, he said.
The cause of the fire was undetermined at press time, but LaFaso said it started in the kitchen area of the two-story woodframe house.
The property is owned by Everett Louder. The names and number of tenants renting the home were unknown at press time.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...
