Over in GD, there is a thread about mass layoffs in the police and fire departments in East St. Louis.  It breaks my heart to think of that lovely place going down hill.

Anyhow, is there anyplace on any of the boards where people are posting threads like this so that we can keep track of all of President Obama's accomplishments?  It seems like everyday you hear that X state has a Y budget deficit or has to cut 36% from their budget to balance it (as Illinios is currently facing) or this city or that city is cutting or flat out doing away with their police force.  

Does anyone know of a sticky that tracks this?  Could one be started here?

Are you frikin serious?  Last time I was in East St Luis the place was a shit hole rivaled only by Detroit for urban decay.  Course that was three decades ago, but it did not seem to me to be a place with much of a future then. Had things changed?

if you read the "if you think it's bad..." thread in gd, it doesn't specifcally cite budget cuts, but talks a lot of federal and state budgets. From there, I'm sure you can ask about layoffs and other budgetary items.
