ukusuka Idolophu iMilwaukee
I-Billboard ye-Milwaukee enomyalezo olula wamagama ayi-10 ugxile kuluntu kule nyanga kwinkcitho yomkhosi kunye neendleko zemfazwe.
Iintshutshiso zoxolo, amagosa oluntu, ababhikishi, oonongendi, kunye namalungu oluntu anomdla wokundwendwela indawo, eJames Lovell nasezitalatweni zase Wells, ukufunda nokuphendula kule bhodi. Umyalezo wayo kwilizwe jikelele:
"Iipesenti ezi-3 zokuchitha imali yasemkhosini e-US zingaphelisa indlala emhlabeni."
Kodwa imbono yendawo, ngandlela thile, iba ngumdlalo ngakumbi. Amanani ayahexa.
Ngo-2018, abarhafi baseMilwaukee County bahlawula $1.54 billion njengesabelo sabo kuhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lomkhosi. Ngeendleko zeemfazwe ezingapheliyo i-US ibandakanyeka kwihlabathi jikelele, kuthunyelwa iirhafu zerhafu $ 141.19 yezigidi ukuya kwi-Pentagon.Since 2001, iindleko zizonke zeemfazwe kubahlawula irhafu sele $ 10.68 billion. Kulula, mhlawumbi, ukubona ngale ndlela: $ 10,680,000,000.
La manani avela kwi IProjekthi kaZwelonke ephambili, esithi: "Uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lwethu lubonisa uthotho lokhetho. Ezo zikhetho kufuneka zibonise izinto eziphambili ngokubaluleka njengesizwe. Kodwa bayayenza? ”
Uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lumalunga nokhetho, kanye njengohlobo lwerhafu ekufuneka lwenziwe xa kusenziwa isigqibo kuhlahlo-lwabiwo mali losapho. Kodwa iintsapho azinandlela yokusebenzisa amatyala eedola ezigidi. Ityala elikhoyo likazwelonke $ 23-triliyonikunye nokubala, kwaye kuya kukhula phantsi kohlahlo-lwabiwo-mali olutsha oluvunyiweyo nguMongameli ngexilongo, ethatha inkcitho yasekhaya kwaye inyusa uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lwePentagon, ngelixa uphando lubonisa abavoti baseMelika abafuna okuchaseneyo.
Yintoni ebinokubhatalwa ngumrhafi werhafu ka-Milwaukee ngonyaka omnye wePentagon ye- $ 1.54-yezigidigidi ekubhataleni? Nazi ezinye izinto ezinokwenzeka:
- 20,115 Ootishala bezikolo ezizizo okanye
- 20,829 Imisebenzi ecocekileyo yamandla edaliweyo okanye
- 27,773 Imisebenzi yezibonelelo okanye
- 15,429 Imisebenzi yenziwa kwiindawo zentlupheko ephezulu okanye
- 192,855 Intloko Isiqalo eselungiselelwe abantwana okanye
- 145,216 Abasebenzi bezilwanyana abafumana ukhathalelo lwe-VA okanye
- 1.05 million Abantwana bafumana ukhathalelo lwempilo olunomvuzo omncinci okanye
- 45,820 Ukufundiswa kwabafundi beyunivesithi iminyaka emi-4.
Akukho mntu ucebise ukuba ivale iPentagon kwaye uchithe lonke uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali kwenye into, ewe. Kodwa neepesenti ezili-10 zohlahlo-lwabiwo mali lomkhosi zinokuxhasa ngemali iinkqubo ezahlukeneyo ezifuneka kakhulu ezixhaswa ngemali. Kwaye akukho sidingo sokukhetha into kuluhlu olungentla. Singazithatha ezinye kwikholam A, ezinye kwikholam B njalo njalo ukwenza olunye uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali.
Okanye kuthekani ukuba asiyichithanga yonke? Khawufane ucinge ngefuthe elinokuba nalo kwiibhiliyoni zeedola kuqoqosho lwasekhaya ukuba zichithwe ngabahlawuli berhafu endaweni yorhulumente. Zininzi izinto onokukhetha kuzo, kodwa akukho nanye inokusebenza ngokude nje ukuba iPentagon ine-itsheki engenanto.
I-Milwaukeeans sele inerekhodi njengokukhetha utshintsho kwiidola zombuso ukusuka emfazweni ukuya kwizinto zoxolo.
Isixeko sabavoti seMilwaukee, kudala ngo-1982, bavotela uxhaso lwe-Jobs With Peace's referendum ifuna ukutshintshwa kwenkcitho kwezomkhosi ziye kwezinye iimfuno.Onyakeni ophelileyo, IBhodi yaBaphetheyo yaseMilwaukee Countyyamkele isisombululo esifuna i-Congress ukuba "ihambise kwakhona imikhosi yaseburhulumenteni kwimfuno zabantu kunye nokusingqongileyo: uncedo oluya kwinjongo yokubonelela ngemfundo yasimahla, ephezulu kwisikolo sangaphambi kwesikolo ukuya kwikholeji, ukuphelisa indlala yehlabathi, ukuguqula i-United States ukuba ibe namandla acocekileyo, ukubonelela ngokusela okucocekileyo. amanzi naphi na afuneka, kwakha oololiwe abahamba ngesantya esiphezulu phakathi kwazo zonke iidolophu ezinkulu zaseMelika, imali yokufumana ingqesho, kunye noncedo lwangaphandle olungena emkhosini.
Imfazwe "ithatha ukutya emilonyeni yeentsana," Inkosikazi kaMilawuukee, Phendula. UGwen Moore, uxelele amatshantliziyo oxolo kumsitho obephambi kwebhodi yezaziso kwiveki ephelileyo. “Sinohlahlo-lwabiwo mali lomkhosi olusisiqhushumbisi. Yaphula intliziyo yam xa uMongameli waphakamisa uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali nge-180 yezigidigidi kumjikelo wohlahlo-lwabiwo mali kule minyaka ilishumi izayo ukuba ikhutshwe kwi-SNAP. Abantwana abafumana ukutya kwinkqubo yesidlo sakusasa nakwisidlo sasemini kuyo yonke le ndawo baya kuphulukana nezi zibonelelo. ”
