I got a curious piece of mail today. It was from State Represenative Todd Eachus. It's not unusual to get a piece of propaganda from an elected official but they usually come in an election year. But the really strange thing about it is that it came from someone from another district. I hope this not a trend and it's another reason to ban this abuse of taxpayer money. But that's another story.The letter itself touts the promise of building a cargo airport near Hazleton. Claiming 100,000 jobs could be created and raise the medium income and cites the miracle of Memphis as a reason to build yet another airport in the area. I have my doubts about this project knowing full well how real-estate deals are done around here. Mr. John Doe used eminent domain to get rid of Paragon Adventure Park. More will come. Since there is no "anchor tenant" how far will this fantasy proceed?

I recieved this letter also and find it amazing that our elected officials can use our tax dollars for postage to pursuade people to think the same way that they think...I would think that this is illegal and wrong..I want the people to use their own intellagence to decide what they want in their neighborhoods. we all know that the Jobs are going to be political jobs and minimum wage...if the Cargo Airport even gets off the ground...
Got one too Gort. The wife got all excited thinking he wanted to do an interview for the blog. Yeah, right. When we going to get missives on the inflatable damn?
