A WAY TO REALLY IMPROVE PARTICIPATiON IN THE FORUM

[Ross]

I must say, I am humbled by the positive as well as the negative criticisms I have received on this tread today.
Thank you to each and everyone who posted remarks with my name in it.

It seems some people think they can attack the problem of a lack of population in Elk County by spending money and by using economic development. Yet, if they understood a little bit of Elk County history and what made it percolate at one time they might understand throwing taxpayer dollars in the manner called economic development will not return the population to the days of yesteryear.

I went to West Elk USD 282 and looked over numerous records related to the School Building on highway 99.
I read studies and information relating to the building that showed that, Howard West Elk which is the abandoned school building in the center of Howard, you know the Howard blight. That building had 700 and some students when it was closed, just where did those 700 students go to school when that building closed? Did they go to the new West Elk? The one they think they need to add on to for only 300 students.

Well, anyway a report written back then stated that there use to be hundreds of small farms in Elk County that were bought out and are now parts of the big farms. That displaced hundreds of families and that means they moved out of Elk County. There went your population.

I seem to remember someone on this forum suggesting, making available 50 acre parcels so people might move here. And the reason for 50 acres was described as people might feel they actually have a farm or ranch.

But do you think the people that own the large acreage want to give it up? I doubt it and with proper justification.

Elk County doesn't have an industrial park to provide a place for any size industry to build, or the population to provide employees.
There is also insufficient housing to provide for employees if a company brought their own people.

Just like she said that she is going to bring four industries into Longton , but with out any meat in the statement, sounds a lot like a liberal Democrat named Obama to me. A RINO if you will. (Republican In Name Only for those that don't know what it means)

You don't hear garbage like that out of Doug Ritz. I believe Mr. Ritz may think about making promises like I do, if you can't keep a promise don't make it. I believe Doug Ritz is that HONEST !

It's all just my opinion, but try calling Kaminska and ask what those four industries are and ask how many employees they will hire from Elk County or if they will import them? And then ask if there is enough housing.
 
Then give Doug Ritz and ask if he is bringing industry to any where in Elk County and find out the Truth for yourself.
Just ask yourself who is making campaign promises they can not keep and why would they do that? I believe you will come up with an intelligent answer of your very own.

And if you do perhaps you will:

Good post Ross, and not a personal put down anywhere. Thanks. 

[redcliffsw]

Ross makes many good postings.  However, liberals/socialists never like seeing his posts.
It's no surprise that they want Ross and some us removed from the Forum.     

Most Americans are on some kind of government program or they're working for the government.  Others are scheming for power like the Elk Konnected bunch.  Ross provides them no comfort - they don't want to lose their government security that is being looted from other Americans.  Everyone can tell that Ross does not like tyranny and the tyranny has many followers including some whose ancestors settled in Elk County, Kansas.   

Who would have thought that socialism would establish such a strong force in America?   

There's a clear and distinct choice in the County Commissioner election.  Hopefully, Americans like Doug Ritz will prevail in the elections and the socialists will lose.

If Teresa and Kjell wanted to improve the Forum and participation by many on many good subjects all they would have to do is Shut Ross, Redcliff and 3 or 4 of Rosses cronies off. Everyone I have talked to is afraid to post because Rosses gets so rude if he doesn't agree with them.  I hope all of the voters will vote their heart and vote against Ross and his lies. Ross has Elk Konnected on the  Brain. Most of the people he has claimed were "El Konnected" had nothing to do with it. Ross is the worst thing to come to Elk County in along time. I know lots of you have told my family and friends that you ignore Ross.

It is a Good thing that  Teresa, and Kjell, take the 1st amendment which you obviously hate and despise. So in the spirit of the 1st amendment, You can just go f off.  I am not nice and polite like Ross and Redcliff are, i just tell you like it is. 
I like Ross, Redcliff, and the rest of this group and your pretty much a newcomer as i haven't seen you on here before.  I in particular don't give a rats ass if you are here or not.

Why would anyone listen to
Joesue 23
an apparently confused gender person
from
Caney, KS
in
Montgomery County
Who couldn't or wouldn't explain
a dual gender name?
Just asking!

Remember what a RINO is?
A democrat disguised as a Republican, Right?

I think this picture might explain the difference between Mr. Ritz ad Ms. Kaminska.
Mr. Ritz has put money back in our pockets via lower property taxes while Ms. Kaminska has already stated she wnats to take it away from s and hire a new county Employee as an Economic Development Employee.
Which has been proven to be an effort in failure by having had other Economic Development Employee that failed to accomplish anything.

The West Elk School District has increased our property tax and I believe the majority of the School Board Members are Elk Konnected, go figure! That needs to be changed in April, doesn't it?

So this picture sort of illustrates a similar attitude in my opinion.

T'was the night before elections,
And all thru' the town,
Tempers were flaring
Emotions ran up and down.

I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap,
Had shut off the TV,
Tired of political crap.

When all of a sudden,
There a rose such a noise,
I peered out my window,
Saw Obama and his boyz.

They had come for my wallet,
They wanted my pay
To hand out to others
Who had not worked a day.

He snatched up my money,
And quick as a wink,
Jumped back on his band wagon
As I gagged from the stink.

He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart.
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!

On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers,
On Acorn, on Pelosi
He screamed at the pairs!

They took off for his cause,
And as they flew out of sight,
I heard him laugh at a nation,
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!

So I leave you to think,
On this one final note...
IF YOU DON'T WANT SOCIALISM,
GET OUT AND VOTE!
