The City Council voted 4-3 to seek bankruptcy protection for Harrisburg, which has a debt burden five times its general-fund budget "because of an overhaul and expansion of a trash-to-energy incinerator that doesn’t generate enough revenue," Bloomberg reported.

It'd be nice if the bankruptcy judge would actually find the city council personally and professionally liable for restructuring under Chapt. 9.

That way, future city council members know that when they vote to spend money on the next really stooopid project, their own asses will be held to account.

*Sigh*

I guess I'm reaching for the stars on this one.
