Suburban poverty rises in Youngstown metro area, report shows

No Crap! What highly educated idiot did this study. The working poor, Yes the good people that do go do work everyday and do their best to support their families have moved out of the drug, crime, gang and blight invested city to areas in Boardman, Austintown, Struthers and the like where they can feel somewhat safe and hope that their children can get a safe and good education. The city has been a magnet for the entitlement poor for the last 5 years since the economy fell apart. Bottom feeders were moving here in great numbers because the government assistance goodies went a lot farther than in cities like Philly, Atlanta, and high rent areas. This is why Youngstowns needs to grow with the Shale boom so these blood sucking transients will move on to the next blighted area to destroy the neighborhood. Most of these people have classified a good paying job as a life threatening disability and will never change until the government wakes up and stops the cash cow.

Browns’ draft pick Bryant arrested for DUI

This is what you get when you only look at the athletic talents of these thugs. They are raised in the hoods, by the streets, do you think that a million dollar contract changes that? If you make them finish their education that is payed for by the tax payers, maybe they will mature enough to become a part of the normal society that can contribute good to their team and teammates.

Hagan files forms to start raising money for a 2016 U.S. Senate bid

Let Hagan get his money from the fracking idiots he supports. I bet these people will not give up any of there government social security checks to help him when he needs money. I will tell you one thing. He won't get any of my fracking money. Maybe after he losses he can get a government loan to get a welding certificate to work in the fracking industry. I love Karma!!

Hollywood Slots at Mahoning Valley racino wins state OK

Racetrack, Casino, Covelli Center, Great Golf Courses a Downtown renewal. Now the buses will roll in and if hotels are smart you offer golf packages with night time entertainment. We in the Mahoning Valley can now get some of the tourist. The negators in the Valley do not want to see progress, because they are afraid that as long as you keep people away from this area they can live like trash and collect their entitlements and know one will see how low some of valley residents have sunk to exsist. This can be great for our children to find jobs and stay in the area. Prosperity will drive the takers away from this area because they will no longer get cheap housing in the city where they can spread their blight. How come the non frackers comment on every article in the paper? I guess when no one is listening to their bullcrap, they have to find a free media to vent.

At Don Victor's, details make the dish

This place is one of the worst Mexican resturants in the area. I have eaten there twice and I find the food lousy. The refried beans are runny and the meat in the wrap are bland. I went there on a gift certification and if I were given a certificate again I would give it up. I live in Austintown and I have never seen bigs crowds there for dinner. Los Gallos and the others are much better when it comes to serving good mexican food.

Anti-fracking groups dismiss drilling certification as ‘publicity stunt’

These groups are so caught up in their own crap that they would believe the second coming of Christ when it happens. They are lucky they are in a country that allows them to go against everything.

Allied Waste strike expands

It is time to terminate these unauthorized stikers and get new employees that understand that every company is getting away from the pension plans and going to 401K type programs. The problem with this course of actions is that now the worker has to save some of his own retirement and with that in mind, how would they pay for the now gratification of IPhones, Direct TV and all the new non value ways they seperate themselves from their paychecks. The one thing that I do agree with is that they freeze their current pension benefits and going forward buy into the the 401K plan for the future. Face it fellows, with GPS you do not have to be a rocket scientiest to pick up garbage. The are lines of undeducated idiots in the valley that would be happy to have decent jobs of trash removal.

Penney’s CEO challenge: Is the company fixable?

Get back to basics. I keep reading the baby boomers segment is the largest group in the US. We have the money and still wish to spend it. We need a line of cloths that fits good and looks good on our aging bodies and until the other idiot got in to run the company Pennys gave us that selection. The board who hired this last guy should be fired. He sold Apple Products. The young generation today would rather buy the latest equipment to be cool rather then feed their children. Thank God that someone saw this downward trend before Pennys became a legend gone by the wayside like Montgomery Wards.

Warren GE plant to close

Now the handfull of older workers that get the special retirement package because the plant is closing can support their children and grandchildren because their kids that could of worked there are done. And we can not figure out way large compandies do not want to build new factories here. Manufacturing is coming back to this country and the valley will be look over because even when the unions want to cooperate to keep jobs there are some older wokers that just do not care about the next generation. My hats off to the auto workers for their sacrifice to keep the industry hiring some of the sons and daughters.
