Well lets see. He made a campaign promise that he would never allow casino's in Ohio. Last week, issue 3 passed, with our Governors support. He can't figure out how to balence our state so he's gotten desperate enough to abandon his compaign promises. ITS TIME FOR CHANGE.
This was her only option of facilites to receive such treatment? I think there's always going to be a moment to pause when a single woman wishes to have a child this way. It's not easy raising a child when your single in todays world.
I'm not a de Sousa fan, but his words speak the truth this time. TruthPac was on the right track to defeating Issue 3 until they decided to resort to mud slinging. When will people learn that mud slinging doesn't work anymore. People have become numbed to it's effects, some even enraged by the strategy. Now our constitution grants four casino's to one operator with no visible competition within the state of Ohio. Cross your fingers and hope for the best folks!
AKAFR1, who cares if its a permanent tax, you were already paying it and we obviously need it! If you don't like how Trafacantti spends it, vote him out...that's the power you and other voters have to make change. Also, are personal insults your only form of rebuttal?
Several others have suggested that additional paycuts made across county government offices would help our county operate in the black. I would have to agree, its a valid point. During these hard economic times, no new taxes resonates across most of our minds. However, this 1/2% sales tax was not a new tax, it was renewal with a provision to make it permanent, as AKAFR1 pointed out. It will be back on the ballot in May. If it doesn't pass, don't be surprised if county services across all departments are diminished.
I don't want sales taxes either, but this was a renewal, not a new tax! I for one don't want to see inmates being released early again from county jail because we can't afford to incarcirate them! When they're breaking into your home or stealing your car, you'll wish you had renewed this sales tax!
AKAFR1, what adjacent business have you frequented? I've been there to, there's not much worth visiting.
I do agree, Casino's are just one piece of economic development, albeit, one I'd rather do without. I'd much prefer service, R&D, manufacturing, or technology businesses to start-up or locate in Ohio. As 'youngstownshrimp' mentions in his post, it brings many temporary jobs for architects, engineers, construction workers, decorators along with capital project and material purchases...then once that's all completed, some Ohioans will gain fulltime employment and the state will collect taxes.
I just feel very strongly that this casino business will fall far short of the promises made by the operators and state legislators. I'd prefer gambling stayed in Vegas, Atlantic City or Biloxi.
I'm far more interested in what the Youngstown Incubator has done for the valley. This is the sort of initiative we should be supporting. Real technology start-ups that create real jobs!
LOL, I think you should pay attention a little more. A warrent check was done on her and showed a bench warrent for an unpaid traffic violation. The traffic violation had already been paid. The first question you should ask is why did the warrant check not reflect this? The second question you should ask, is what probable cause did he have to stop her in the first place? The warrant check was run after the traffic stop...not before. That's a no no.
LOL, your arguement would have more merit if the timeline was a little different. So please keep your opinion to yourself if your not going to take the time to read up on the facts.
The chain of events at the jail sound a little unprofessional by the jailors. It will be up to higher powers to determine if her constitutional rights were abused.

The kids will be punished, as will the parents if they provided the alcohol...end of story.

Another reason to make drastic changes in upcoming elections, from legislators right up to the Governor....it's time for change!

For those who have jobs, be thankful. You may not see a reversal in this jobless trend until midway next year! Be patient, it will come.
