But from an economic standpoint, consider it a sight for sore eyes. LETTERS Clearwater sold to Big Brother Editor: Apparently three days in the grave was not enough to decompose the red light camera plan. Unlike the Biblical Lazarus who came out restored to do good, this plan has been restored to do evil. The Clearwater Beacon quotes Mayor Hibbard: “I am not comfort- able with cameras in general … it smacks of Big Brother but we are facing budget woes.” Money talks and morals walk. The Big Brother factor should be enough in itself to stop this in its tracks from a mayor who should understand the full meaning of his words. But I believe he was lob- bied, enticed and swayed much like big government. I am like Mary, grieving at the lost brother. Clearwater has been sold to Big Brother with the mayor’s consent – for money like Judas Iscariot. Red light cameras are purely and simply a way to make up for lost revenue in these hard economic times. This is a very obvious money-grabbing ploy. Installing red light cameras is certainly not to free up police officers since an officer will have to review the ticket and video. But they say they are free to substitute a certified technician? Who is certifying the technician who is paying for his training or certification? Is that a whole new job title? Two things that cost money? Red light cameras don’t prevent accidents; they just record them – proving fault. How much manpower will be needed when tickets and fines are challenged? It was not me driving the car you say? Now I have to prove who was? I read recently if you say it wasn’t you driv- ing then the other person will get more fines? So now you want to force people to say they were driving so that their sister, brother, aunt, uncle or friend won’t have to pay a bigger fine than if it were you. And that’s OK with Big Brother since they still get your money and they tell the victim it’s OK. It won’t be on your license anyway – just pay up. Slippery slope isn’t it. Just remember Clearwater Coun- cil, you freely oiled the slope. Let’s not forget these cameras are outsourced, so who is holding them accountable? How much will it take to hold them accountable? Money breeds contempt. So who will make sure the city of Clearwa- ter is getting everything it is supposed to receive? Now we have to pay to have that outside vendor/company audited.
