Ummmm. Is there something wrong with our government cleaning up an environmental mess? I would much prefer that the industry do it, but if not, should we just let it sit there? Also, what's so wrong with making sure someone else doesn't make the same mess once it is cleaned up?
Also, take a minute to look around. NH County is completely built out. We are pretty much out of land here. How will this cement plant help us? It won't.
The reason our COUNTRY got in this current mess is because big business has been allowed to write the rules and do anything it wants. This promise of "high paying jobs" and "increased tax base" is bogus. The taxes will be paid by the employees and the big business will lobby for more tax breaks and will avoid its responsiblity, as usual. And once again, the burden of this big business will trickle all the way down to us - the citizens who have to come in later and clean up the mess - while the folks who made millions on the deal skate away to spend their money.
Wake up please.
Ummmm. Is there something
