We're all too greedy and thoughtless

Is it not just me but, are we all too greedy?

Even the six Commissioners are taking home to share out between them, well over £6,000 per day plus top hotel accommodation and meals! How can they spend so much money? Or, do they have to fund their huge gated mansions, estates and grounds?

Do they have a cool, sensitive conscience over their greed and extravagance while they sit there overseeing a belt-tightening exercise for Brummies?

Over 14 years of austerity, what did these Top Seven VIPs do about BCC leading the way in the West Midlands for spending hundreds of millions in price and weight of greenhouse gas emissions on replacing bus routes and train services with trams ("the bus on rails")?

Centenary Square was rebuilt three times in less than 20 years. 

The free-flowing inner ring road was built and destroyed in two places, only to be replaced by traffic lights and a circuitous one-way system! Millions spent on adding to congestion, poisonous air and Climate horrors ahead for more of us in the years to come.

Could the Commissioners set us a fine example, possibly? Or, come and examine my finances and lifestyle and tell me what I'm doing wrong?
