What is the point of voting?

We voted for the ability too burn leaves in the city... and it passed.

Then the City Council, Mayor or whomever was responsible said, "No, you can't do that. It's too dangerous." 

Why was it on the ballot then a few years ago? Shouldn't our vote count for something? We the People, and all that. Isn't the voice of the people what really counts in America?

Now we vote in a new Mayor by a literal landslide and the City Council is there again voicing their opinions that he is not qualified due to a technicality. They want to assign their own flunkie to be in power until 2021. Really?

What is the point of voting if the City Council can do whatever the heck they want to do after the fact?

Ramey has been supposedly resigning since 2017 and Ashby is out in August. Jones doesn't want to be interim . Looks like the classic rats fleeing a sinking ship. And if that is the case, what was the point of this whole charade?


You let them get away with overturning the burning leaves issue, they go for bigger things and take the Mayor-elect out of the picture. What is next? Where will this madness end?
