Dear Editor: To lay off 100 more county employees prolongs the recession, could add to foreclosures and will wreak havoc on families. Instead, why not cut work time and pay by 20 percent (or whatever percentage does the job) across the board. The county saves and no one loses a job. Maybe services are slower; they would be anyway with the layoffs. Most everyone can cut back 20 percent, I know as I have.
Letter to the editor: Try cutbacks instead
