Milwaukee's LOUSY Snow Removal

Hand it to Channel Four for presenting actual (not fake!!) news on this matter.

Nutshell:  snow removal in the City of Milwaukee has been horrible.  The reporter here went beyond the old "people didn't move their cars" excuse which DPW loves to use because,........well,.........lots of cars were ticketed and towed.

And STILL the streets are narrowed, with serious visibility problems created by immense piles of snow.

So what does DPW have to say?

...Fifty-eight plow trucks had issues or broken equipment during snow operations this week according to DPW. They also revealed that they're short about 45 plow drivers. And, the drivers it currently employs, have no more than five years of experience....
IOW--and sadly, unmentioned by the reporter--Barrett's budgets cut back on maintenance, new equipment, and compensation scales for DPW.  

But to make up for it, Barrett gave the City a new CHOO CHOO TRAIN!!

Another city with 90++ years of Democrat and Socialist governance going down the Infrastructure Porcelain Tubes.  Here's my shocked!! face.....
