Madison pays higher prices for many consumer goods, not just gas. The markets have been monopolized and this is a tOuRiSt destination, you're not supposed to make a home here.

Jeff, I know you join the majority of the public in remaining frustrated with the shelter board & commissioners, especially Little. You are right, it was too long & too hard of a fight to end up celebrating as if everything is okay now. Most are extremely angry & the calls still come to the society complaining about the shelter. But, Trish Parker is an excellent choice for director. She was a humane society choice long ago. But, would not even. consider the position after the past director was terminated. If it helps you feel better, we never mentioned her name for fear Baron, Hannah and Little would fight against her simply because the society endorsed her. The bottom line is there will be a new ILA to operate the shelter but it will not have a shelter board that will shield the commissioners. Veterinarians will be engaging- (at least for a while) and their pressure for funding will help keep things moving in a positive direction unless that push becomes financially self serving as it did for Baron. A new shelter is in the works- it has been for some time but things are creeping along at the usual government speed. As far as accountability- Hannah still has a job, Joy still cries when she’s been caught lying and Little is still commissioner. But- Hannah has lost her podium from which to scream, Little has said he won’t run again for commissioner- maybe the truth- maybe not, and Joy has to work extra hard to keep vets in line and has ton of work to dig out from under the damage she has done to her reputation covering up the abuse and neglect of shelter pets. The big issue is the need for a county wide spay neuter push after years of both city and county dumping cats into the county and area farms. We have a serious overpopulation problem and dangerous feral cat issue. The society provides a low income program, but both the city and county need to FUND spay neuter programs. When too many adoptable animals outstrip possible owners we either need to invest millions in sheltering or euthanize. So the public needs to influence officials to implement spay neuter programs as a way to immediately reduce pet population in a humane manner.
