maybe the mill could be transformed into a "lifestyle community" with much diversity and little homogeneity.

This is a mean post and should be removed. His wife is not a thing...she is a human being.
I agree that post was disgusting. Glenn - who police-es this stuff? Those kinds of posts should be removed before they're posted - hello NOT POSTED. If you don't have the manpower to montitor it then it shouldn't be up. This is the 1st time I've ever sent anything but I think you should be ashamed of yourself on a lot of levels. Let's see how long this post is up!

Clearly I'm an Alcombright supporter (and wouldn't you all like to know why????)

Many of us in the past, have been ineffective namby-pamby cream puffs.

But that has all changed. We are free from those chains, that have bound us in North Adams.

Hey,"weil mccain". At least Mr. Tremblay has taxes to pay, just like most of us in America.

Not like some of your buddies, who get "free taxpayers grant money" and "tax credits".

I could care less if it took him fifty years to pay that tax bill.

At least he is not "stealing" my "tax dollars" in grants to make "himself and his friends rich".

Isn't there some more grant money you need to find; for the good of North Adams,"really"?

How about some properties to steal?

trem is no different than:

"the spoke" guy - didnt pay taxes
"the angelina's lady" - didnt pay taxes collected
"the used car guy" in williamstown - didnt pay taxes

i guess its ok for him to do that since no body pays taxes around here.\

"takecare" says its ok - at least he owes taxes. would you rather steal or be lazy? tough choice. trem and the others chose to steal. i would rather be a monk and spit-shine windshields personally.

no... then you will be lambasted for not paying your taxes like a deadbeat for years. then you were finally forced to do it. now, if and when you do pay them, i will have already said it. so new things will be said at that time. i'm not holding my breath that you'll pay anytime soon.

How interesting that you would only list small business owners,"lil ol me". We have so few in North Adams. I would not be surprised if the majority of small business owners in North Adams are not on the brink of bankruptsy.
They are the backbone of any strong community. When they fail, we all fail.
These are not individuals asking for free handouts. When you see this many small business owners sruggling, to pay their taxes, you know there is a problem.
I have a solution.
Stop corporate welfare in North Adams. Taking care of a few, but never giving back to the many.
How many millions in taxpayers dollars have we received from state and federal grants? Who has received these monies? How can we be so poor, when we have been given so much?
Why do we continue to harrass our small business owners,(give them a break) but yet put our many non-profit agencies on some bizarre pedal stool?
Our small business owners work "without" any federal or state funding.
Can you say the same about your friends?

Yes, Why do businesses like Jae's get tax breaks. Many of us small business owners could use a break also.

Instead of raising taxes, why not sell the properties JB
has taken under the guise of eminent domain?

To MKEade: The post to which you refer was removed by me on Friday. Unfortunately, I did not catch the post that referred to that comment, which I have subsequently removed.
As I have made clear on numerous times over the past several months, I am not a fan of Topix, but it is what it is, and I have no power to end it. Readers can help immensely by flagging the posts they consider offensive or by e-mailing me directly with concerns (gdrohan@thetranscript.com).
Believe me, this was far from the worst we've seen. Keeping this site policed is a constant battle but one that we will continue. Other publications have simply let the venom spew, unchecked. We will not let that happen here.
