Your Tax Dollars at Work

Over at Red Dirt Report, Andrew W. Griffin has the story of an Oklahoma middle-school administrator and her family (and her pets!) who took shelter in the school on Tuesday, safe from the deadly storms. But when a neighborhood mom and dad showed up with their children, the administrator told them to take a hike. (She later let them in, reluctantly.)

As a very wise man once said in another context, the hireling doesn't care for the sheep like the shepherd does.
