County Pay Raises

Re “Supervisors Vote to Hike Own Benefits,” Jan. 15:

What’s with our county supervisors? Are they so destitute with their almost $100,000 salary and $16,000 in perks that they need an additional $3,000? Come on, taxpayers! Let’s unite and “throw the rascals out.” Thank God for Supervisor Gloria Molina, who is making the public aware of these “obscene” perks.

I wholeheartedly agree with Molina: Our chief administrative officer, Richard B. Dixon, should be fired immediately.

The big surprise is Supervisor Kenneth Hahn. I had always thought of him as a dedicated public servant. How can he defend someone who spent millions to redecorate his office and authorizes those shameful travel allowances to resorts?
