		<description>You could search all day every day the rest of your life and not find a single instance of Wes Hayes being corrupt. Will Folks, on the other hand, is as corrupt as they come.</description>

		<description>well there is a Senate and House Ethics Committee, not a commission. It&#039;s evident most of you have very little idea how anything works and I&#039;m continously amazed most of you can put together a complete sentence...I digress

Phillip Branton, you have some good ideas....however most of them are already implemented, so why are you still bitching.  And are you serious about this statewide calendar?? there would have to be another agency hired just to manage that.  As someone who worked in state government at one point, I can tell you just my small office and agency had 10 meetings a day in the Columbia area, and 90% of people don&#039;t care about what we did or they now do.

Unfortunately, FITS needs things to write about, and it&#039;s you same morons (probably FITS staff) that keep responding. 

To quote FITS &quot;but laws are laws, people.  It’s the principle of the thing&quot; --- well FITS, why aren&#039;t you doing time for CDV or facing slander and libel charges? Because you&#039;re above the law aren&#039;t you.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s apparent to me that voters across the State of South Carolina have voted the corrupt politicians of Union County into offices all over the state.

When I run for office my campaign slogan will be, &quot;I Won&#039;t Get Caught&quot;</description>

		<description>FITS.........

Ol&#039; RON....needs an answer to a question of PATRIOTIC duty.....

RON.....if you would take time to think and look in a mirror....the answer to your question hits you right between the EYES...!

Since we all here live in the 21st Century and have the &quot;INTERNETS&quot;, it would behoove to have ONE statewide website for ALL elected officials. City, County, State and FEDERAL...!!!  This website would be an OPEN book for CALENDAR appointments, Campaign accounts, State, City, County and LOBBYISTS funds accounts that are accessed by ANYONE at ANYTIME....!!!

All Public Meeting notices and Government schedules would be posted for ALL citizens statewide to see in calendar format with Google Earth links...!!   No more LAST Minute meetings that only LOCAL citizens know about that have STATEWIDE impact...!!!!

AS FAR AS ETHICS........once all accounts are posted, including Lobbyists and Public Institutions accounts, most blatant offenses would STOP due to campaign re-election ramifications alone...!!!  This website would allow a COMMENT SECTION for all citizens to offer their &quot;TRUTH Perspective&quot; for all transactions. Millions of EYEs are far better than some ETHICS COMMISSION....!!!!

Heck, all family relations and all business and all school relations should also be displayed and acknowledged. 

As far as WHO would PAY for this website......just take a LOOK at all the many websites already payed for by taxpayers already....!?!?   A serious effort in Information efficiency is LONG overdue...!! Once citizens WISE up to this SCAM, these funds will go back into LOCAL school coffers..!!
Who would update the information....??? Actual High School Students would be the DATA Entry volunteers to actually LEARN how state Government WORKS....!?!?!

How many High School Juniors and Seniors do we have in this STATE ...!?!?  The teachers would GRADE them on there ....WHAT...!?!

Who would help the teachers do the grading....... Answer: statewide citizens COMMENT FEEDBACK....!!!!  

We taxpayers pay for these schools......should we NOT BE getting a direct timely PAYOFF for our investment into our kids EDUCATION...!?!?

We are sure that if information was inputted incorrectly that POLITICIANS and who else....would be very QUICK to point out the mistakes...!!!!


Imagine how FITSNEWS or the GARNET SPY would then be used .....!!!!!???


Does anyone know how many counties do NOT have a GIS system or use Google EARTH to show LAND transactions....!?!?!

Talk about a RUDE awakening......students getting out now are mortified and stunned when they actually wake up to how inefficient OUR government information flow truly IS...!!!  Government officials really have NO CLUE how this LACK of information is fueling a growing BACKLASH......!!!
Our floundering newspapers actually know this .....IS IT REPORTED..???</description>

		<description>Will,

As you know, we have a SC House Ethics Commission, a SC Senate Ethics commission and a SC Ethics Commissionn.  In my view, this structure is extremely corruptable and needs to be reformed.

Unfortunately government rarely reforms itself.  What in your view can we the people of South Carolina do to facilitate effective ethics reform?  I&#039;d like to see some comments here perhaps from watchdog groups around the country who have most certainly studied this issue.

		<description>I suggest politicians do their job for free,for the sake of patriotism.
Be supplied gas money an office and supplies .Then we might see who truly wants to help our country.Do away with most of the agenda that is unconstitutional and their job shrinks at least 75%....Most people are so brainwashed into thinking because things have run this way for 100 years that they cant be done different.TRY to think outside the box for a change...Try understanding the way our government was intended to run...
Dont support the status quo and then bitch about it.</description>

		<description>Self-policing is a joke. Senate ethics is an oxymoron. Anyone want to do an over under on the dollars paid in fines from all this illegal activity?</description>
