All talk, no action on crime in the city
Week after week, we see the nightly news reports of killings in Chicago, and nothing seems to really get done to change it.
As a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, I know I find it heartbreaking to hear of all the young lives cut short by all this violence.
Mac Davis penned the song, "In the Ghetto," and Elvis Presley recorded it in 1969. This has been obviously been going on for decades and nothing seems to have changed.
Where is all the money city, state and federal agencies have funneled into doing something about this atrocity going?
Who is getting it and exactly what are they doing with it? It seems whenever government agencies "run" programs they're all talk and little or no action.
It seems when charities were run by private entities there was accountability and things actually got done.
Now all kinds of money gets poured into the problems and little if anything happens. Where exactly is the money going and who is accountable for how it is spent??? Unfortunately it seems whenever government bureaucracy gets involved money gets "spent" but little, if anything gets done.
Someone has to be held accountable.
