The sky is falling

BELLOWS FALLS — RE: “BF gets raw deal in letting police chief serve Rockingham” [Letters, Aug. 14]:

Note the slippery logic here, going from “What benefit?” to “zero actual dollars.”

Does everything of human worth have a dollar value? Should government operate by the same principle as prostitutes?

Still, Deb Wright concedes there is possible revenue from this. And there's nothing to indicate this will take much of the chief's time.

The sky, clearly, is falling!
