You sound like a “Big Oil” hater. Did you begrudge the property owners out west who got their first big royalty check from the oil on their property also? Conservative, my foot.
You sound like a Big Government lover, as if this small Parrish Board’s unexpected windfall won’t cause them “issues”.
Conservative indeed.
IMO it would be better if the money was put into a Trust for Scholarships for the local High School, not into the Board’s Bank Account to spend on whatever they feel like.
