What’s so smart about keeping taxes and regulation AND cutting people off without jobs to go to.

Cutting people off welfare doesn’t create jobs. Getting rid of overtaxation and overregulation creates jobs.

This is an entirely “carrot” deal. No “stick” is involved.

Such revitalized towns would have to offer a better deal than what people have elsewhere. The biggest problem would likely be not keeping people in, but keeping other people, you don’t want there, out.

I just saw an article about the other day. I have to disagree. I mean maybe if you drive a small car. Most of us drive trucks, I also use mine for work, so of course it’s lifted etc. A little car might get missed and run right over heh. To me, it seems a good place to raise a family, lots of outdoor activity if you like the outdoors (just bring a gun, lots of bears etc). I guess it’s dangerous if you’re including wildlife.

One thing I have noticed is the moslems taking over the cab companies, then they all live in one same apartment block area and coincidentally it seems most of the drug trade comes from there as well.

and where would those folks live if not help from government to build housing? I would think it would cost less to build housing then it would to continue to pay for medical, food stamps, section 8 housing for welfare folks.
