It would require locals to step up, to take a risk. And I'm not sure the local economic bases are willing to take that risk.

Everyone is too comfortable!!!!

What we do is pester our state legislators, because it has to be the states that start the ball rolling. It's obvious that the country is divided by coastal/liberal states and southern/central/conservative states. There's also an obvious divide by rural and metropolitan areas.  It's a mess when you really think about it. because if there was a split, people would have to move to the place that supported their beliefs. So, when you get right down to it, what we do is sit around complaining doing nothing and  state legislators doing nothing. I do think the country is on the road to collapse though and truthfully, the only thing could change that is to have a very good (if that's possible) dictator with strong basic American/conservative beliefs.  That will never happen of course, so we'll just sit back and watch the country sink.

Very good Wake-Up! To answer your last question: We Don't!!!!!

I see once again a person that doesn't even live here has stated---again---he wishes Kjell and Teresa would shut the forum down. That's just great----a place a lot of us locals get our county information and "foreigners "want it shut down because one person gets under their skin .

I agree with jarhead and if some "foreigners" want the forum shut down, it's very easy for them to shut it down by not getting on it. Then, as far as they are concerned, it's shut down.

I also agree with Ross that the pilot money is county money and not city money, but the commission board is empowered to spend it how they see fit.  Those that disagree with their decision should contact their respective commissioner about it. You must realize that the commission will always have people who agree and disagree with their actions.

Happy Birthday Auntie and many more to you in good health.  Love you bunches

Well, I attained citizenship with distinction. I would encourage everyone to take the test, if for nothing else to learn the answers to the questions.

tarhead's ok. He's been busy trying to bs me about his hunting and trapping ability. Mostly he sits in his recliner watching the Oprah network.

Jarhead, are you saying that you won't have me a watermelon?

I got a hamburger there today, it was very good. No doubt I will be getting another one before long, l love good hamburgers.

Who would have ever guessed that lead would become a precious metal to invest in.

I told you that a long time ago, but you wouldn't listen to me. You never listen to me even though you have found out time after time that I am always right in what I tell you.
