Tax Dollars at Work

Today I saw our tax dollars at work. Every worker was standing around the park talking and getting paid for it. The most disturbing thing was while our class was playing on equipment a lady walks over and starts mowing the grass which is on the playground. Why wasn't it mowed before we got there, oh I forgot they were talking. Where is the safety for our children.  I also, don't appreciate paying high taxes and knowing what it is paying for.
