Any time the reality of what has happened to those who have few resources
but still make the effort to struggle for democracy and fairness is pointed out
....those who protect the interests of the wealthy and powerful cry out---
Not Nice, Not Fair.
Our last Mayor did resort to the police on more than one occasion and
the police and National Guard regarding Hi-Way 55.
Our current Mayor also is aligning himself with these same power
brokers... so it is a reasonable question to wonder if he will resort to the same
tactics when the interests of the rich and powerful are even slightly threatened.
And many of our City Council and County Commissioners are doing the same.
The indecipherable difference between Democrats and Republicans continues
to make me shake my head. (no I am not a Green).
I had to keep reminding myself that Mike Opat is a Democrat given his
stances.
Ostrow stays behind the scenes, but I am convinced he does a huge amount
of wheeling and dealing.
This city is being sold down the river and the apologists for those who
are doing it can only cry out "be nice."
