[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear ya OP. My family is upper middle class so I expect to pay more. But when we were victims of crime twice and when my husband lost his job for several months, there was no one was around to help. What I hate most about the current administration is the amount of $$$ wasted and not accounted for. Yet we keep electing the same people. I feel like there are so many people out there that have no clue what is going on and just vote for the most well known. 
What are we going to do? My DD is graduating this year and we are moving out of state so we won’t have to deal with the awful crime.[/quote]
Don't let the doors hit you on the way out [/quote]
DP.. So, what happens if all UMC leave MoCo?[/quote]

Doesn't it get dull posting the same thing over and over and over and over, year upon year? We know, the sky is falling.[/quote]
DP but the economic outlook is not improving, it is going the other way. The county is effectively becoming an active living retirement community with large and growing poverty. This is not a recipe for success.[/quote]

That’s my concern, too. I feel we would be in a different position if people were aware and educated.

We need to attract business. A tax base. As it is, we actively repel the very opportunities we need. Our county council will be busy issuing proclamations while neighboring counties are attracting businesses and creating income. [/quote]

That's not what people care about.   They want to create little bandaid programs that aid vulnerable communities so that they feel like (mostly white) saviors.   Nobody has the intelligence, vision, or spine to really create the economic framework we need to provide a robust economy that in turn provides real career opportunities to people from very diverse walks of life.
