I read the article about the petition referendum and Greg Greathouse's juvenile comments. His ignorant, asinine remarks continue to expose the abusive and unqualified leadership of Warren. FYI: Voters have the right to a fair, democratic process; not a dictatorship and bullying! Elected officials (like Greathouse) are self-serving predators, ticks and leeches that drain the city! It's time to wake up and speak up, Warren residents, or there won't be a Warren!

Comments made by Warren Councilman Greathouse about Councilman MacPherson, as the Tribune Chronicle reported, were uncalled for and disparaging. Mr. Greathouse revealed his poor judgment in ridiculing the attempt of Mr. MacPherson in trying to protect citizens of Warren from greed and utter lack of respect shown by the council's passage of outrageous, unsustainable and unearned raises. Warren needs fewer people like Greg Greathouse and more like Ken MacPherson.

I am just curious… Why is the Warren clerk for the city getting a 2% and 3% pay raise, which is the standard percentages, yet city officials are getting up to 89% raises? I agree city officials need and deserve a raise, but they are asking way too much. Bring it back to reality!
Warren
Warren residents need to know why city council voted themselves an 89% raise plus full-time benefits. Will city council work 89% more for Warren residents? Will they answer their phone calls 89% more often? The answer is 'no' because they are typical self-serving politicians who forgot they are supposed to serve Warren citizens. The issue should be on the ballot so citizens of Warren can decide.

It didn't take long for Denny to sell out to the suits of Mahoning County with his emphatic yes vote for Valley Vision 2050. The sheep, Mauro, followed like always. What happened to representing the townships and residents north of Route 305? Actions speak louder than words; $1 million wasted. Thanks to Commissioner Frenchko for her "no" vote.

American companies rake in record profits, while workers drown in record food, housing and fuel prices. I didn't believe the trend "silent depression" until I noticed food bank lines. I'm so angry at media propaganda trying to convince us we're better off than five years ago, or Joe Biden is saving the working class. That's hardly true. Ask any police officer about petty theft increases, or any beer salesman whether alcohol sales are through the roof. Silent depression is real.

Why would an official think it's prudent to bail out private utility woes? The pond waves of corruption in our Ohio legislature is rampant. The fact that our supposed 'bailout' for nuclear facilities caused our tax dollars to go to a private company is asinine. I just don't know how to deal with my disgust.

It's scary and hard to fathom that large portions of population favors dismantling our constitutional democracy that we held sacred and many died to preserve. Donald Trump boldly announced he will be a dictator -- filled with retribution and anger, fueled by hatred and mistruths. A man who cares nothing for his country, only for himself and personal power. As president, he would pardon himself for criminal actions! This cannot be allowed. Voters are the only hope as America's guardrail!

Mainstream media has been touting the wonderful effects of Bidenomics. Interest rates down .1% from decades-high numbers. Gas prices down (but now on the rise again). Blah, blah, blah. My question is whether any of the people that come up with these figures have been grocery shopping? Seems like every few weeks prices go up a dollar or more.
