    HI Wendy,

    I have sent it to the Democrat, Gainesville Sun and Jacksonville times 
union but the more people that send it the better our chances of getting them 
to publish something.

    I also think it has been sent to the Sentinel star and Miami Harold.

    Robert

      Thanks Robert for sharing this with all of us.

      I don't know what to say; I think this is inevitable given all the 
outsourcing that's going on from DBS.  There's just too much money being handed 
all around (except maybe to clients), and unfortunately, many people in the 
pipeline get a direct percentage of the money their organization takes in (or 
an indirect percentage).  Money handled like this tempts everyone, which 
includes a lot of unqualified people to come into the system (they're doing it 
for the money, not because it's their calling).

      If you don't think this is the ultimate source of the problem, just 
contrast this to the system where a state bureau chief receives a standardized 
salary, regardless of how much money his bureau handles.  Think about why a 
group of people have hired their own lobbyist to see that they get as much 
money as possible.  I think we'll never be able to clean up the system as long 
as it works like this; money is too difficult to manage, too much of a 
temptation.  I think we need to go back to a system where state employees do 
this work, and they do it in a standardized way, for a standardized salary, 
across the state, and if you as a client have a problem, you have a long chain 
of command which you can work with to get satisfaction.

      Chip

        Hi all,

        Thought some of you might be interested in reading the comprehensive 
report from the IG's office on the recent management review on DBS.  It is time 
to take action on this issue.  This is the worse I have ever seen on the miss 
use of the tax payers dollars and in my opinion is embezzlement of funds 
through state contracts.  I strongly encourage you to send copies to your local 
news paper to get the attention of the commissioner of education and the 
governor so it isn't swept under the rug.  I am so up set I am still shaking 
after reading it.  This is another classic example of the lack of concern for 
blind citizens of Florida.

        If you recall from the Town hall meeting at the FCB convention, Mrs. 
Hildreth said she felt the out come of the report  would be positive, well it's 
time for us to get up off our asses and let her know isn't in no way positive 
and we aren't going to allow blind citizens to be treated this way.

        The information in this post is solely my opinion and in no way 
reflects the opinion of FCB.

        Robert
