This mistake should cost them their jobs

I recently received, as an attorney, information that the City of Springfield put documents online containing people's social security number, driver license number, home and work phone numbers and bank account numbers. What in the world are our politicians thinking about? What in the world are governmental bureaucrats thinking? It is time we threw these bums out and elect officials who have managerial knowledge and experience. How the City of Springfield could put private citizens at risk of identity theft by revealing their personal information on a massive basis is beyond all logic. They should be thrown out office. The bureaucrats who approved this invasion of privacy should be fired immediately.
