In an attempt to fill a $70 million budget hole, Newark's mayor is taking dramatic action in regards to the town's budget. He is even going so far as to cut toilet paper from the 2010 budget.
The reductions include not buying toilet paper for city offices, cutting the work week to four days for non-uniformed city workers, scrapping city holiday decorations, and closing city pools. These extreme measures, most of which will take effect beginning in August, are expected to save the city between $10 million and $15 million.
The toilet paper makes sense as their costs are horrendous for government bathrooms, mostly because politicians are more full of shit than regular folks like us.
