I can not make the meeting due to a fundraiser i'm working at all week.....So, here are my thoughts! Thank You..........

Get rid of Section 8 Housing and the Projects! That will clean up our fine cities!! Move the Welfare, Social Security, and Unemployment offices to Greensburg where they belong. Clean out the High-rise buildings and give them back to the older people who need the help…… Maybe even staff them with some nurses to create some jobs in the city! Cut School Taxes and start charging tuition to people who have kids in the public schools so maybe these parents will start raising their own children and making sure they go to class. Instead of wasting the tax payers money that do not have kids in school! People pay more in school taxes to raise other peoples kids because the parents do not give a damn about it!! They send their kids to school,(or so they think that’s where they are), and the hard working people that have no children pay for them to have Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks, and Some even after school meals. I have no children and I feel that I shouldn’t have to support other people’s children!! I hear stories everyday about some women (I’ve ever over heard some talking) who have children just to get more back on their taxes at the end of the year, and to get welfare because they do not want to work!! You have to Love how People think in today’s age!! That’s all for now………… Any comments?

I drove through New Kensington for the first time on Sat. morning and to say the least I WAS SHOCKED! The downtown was so depressing and abandoned. What happened to all of the businesses? 99% gone! It is such a shame. I bet the city was once bustling and beautiful. This is what malls have done to our cities. We need to bring back our small towns once again. The mom and pop stores that built this country have been pushed out and it is a shame that our small towns are deteriorating like they are.
