    • Abstract:
      The author discusses the reformed government of Cuyahoga County, Ohio and its rise from a scandal-ridden past and elected officials convicted with conspiracy, bribery, and fraud. Topics include the reason behind the 15.5% pay hike for its county council despite the community's continued struggle with the recession and chronic absenteeism among its members, county executive Armond Budish' opportunity to veto the pay hike, and how public service should not be a means to fatten wallets.
