Not. The. Point.

Oh Becky ... I love you to death, but you sure as hell undercut our narrative, didn't you?

I don't think anyone's saying that folks who work on local school boards or county commissions aren't underpaid, but that's not the issue here. The issue is that they tried to secretly cram through a pay hike that would go into effect mid-term ... in the middle of an economic crisis ... when other positions were being cut ... and after two high-profile errors in judgement regarding the superintendent and Oconee County High School softball coach.

Raises aren't bad, but it's important to understand the context too.
