Seriously??? I cannot take anymore increases. I'm barely holding on to my home now. Couldn't something like this wait until the economy recovers?

Truecitizen: before you go hating on me again....I also realize that the article is about the Workender program and a new bus for same.....I was just commenting on what a good job I think Rock County is doing with all of these programs.

truecitizen: my son is currently in the RECAP program in the jail and is benefitting from the programs I mentioned earlier. He has been in jail since January 20th of 2009 and no, he is not in there for a speeding ticket. I realize that most of the inmates are in jail for much more serious offenses than speeding tickets. But, tell me this, if it were you, would you not want your child/loved one to get all the help and direction that he/she could before re-entering society? I stand by what I said from experience, and still maintain that in my opinion Rock County is doing an awesome job working to rehabilitate and prepare inmates for re-entry into our community.

I believe Rock County is doing an awesome job in its jail system working with inmates that can be rehabilitated. It is my opinion that it gives them that much more of a chance at making better choices when they are released, and I think Rock County is very wise to recognize this. I'm especially impressed with the RECAP system within the jail. They offer full rehab services as well as some life skills education and the opportunity to do community services. The community service that is performed benefits the community too. All in all, I give Rock County a big thumbs up for their insight, compassion and dedication to the community.

Forget about the ice arena. Use the money for more important items.....like the Juvenile Detention Center for one. Don't know who's doing the thinking but someone needs to get their priorities straight.

I agree...this program is a very good thing. The inmates in the RECAP program that are participating in this volunteer work are trying to turn things around for themselves and do something positive for the community. It's a win - win for all involved. Let's not knock a good thing k? Keep up the good work folks!

leftocenter: I agree. Let's not support these companies that take away jobs from Americans and give them to foreigners. If the product is not made in USA, I will boycott it.

Seriously?.....no buying lots of presents this year. Will be careful with funds as they are meager and need to cover many.
