(42,561 posts)Did I say it was a slap in the face? No, that's you reading into it. I said that when people are so highly taxed that even their own police can't afford to live in the town, that it unwise to flaunt your high salary to the taxpayers in the form of an expensive car. Especially if you work in the school system, where we try so hard to promote values other than materialism.
What's so hard to understand about that? Are you not aware of how you come off to people and why that is a concern?
Also, you don't blame the cop for moving. How is that relevant? That's not even germane to my point. The point is that in a community you like to have the people who work in city government living there. They have more of a stake in their job.
I am absolutely dumbfounded that I have to point something like that out to you.
Oh and the Mercedes was not bought with inherited money. I work with this person. I know him. I know how he got it.
