I strongly support Obama. He has gotten us through the horrible republican mess. What we need to save this country is for democrats to take control of Congress. Then bring back the jobs from China, which the Republicans refuse to let Obama do. We don't need a robber baron like Romney who made all his money shutting down plants like is happening in Warren. Don't reward the thief.
How sad. In the article at the top of the newspaper, the government is giving millions to the richest industry in the world - oil and gas - for training. It's for the richest companies in the world, BP and Shell. Then the paper reports that schools are cutting due to a lack of money. How did we ever get such idiots in charge of our government?
At the very least the government should make Sherman post a huge bond to assure that they do not leave us tax payers with a multimillion dollar bill to clean up after they leave.
more example of idiots in the US government not accepting that they are hopelessly in debt. Trillions of dollars in debt. This is a perfect example of where the government could tighten it's belt. Instead, they cut schools and police.
Religious bigotry is a terrible thing. Not just because they are trying to create a second class of US citizens, but because of actions the religious extremes often take. The best example of course is the very religious Bin Laden. I have no doubt that Jesus is frowning on Allie. Perhaps it is time for a statewide vote on banning interacial marriage. Oh that's right, that was already done. Passed in a majority of States in the US. They all passed. It took the Supreme court to interpret the US Constitution to get that religious bigotry eliminated. I guess that is what it will take here.
Sounds like another crooked move by the Republicans in Columbus to bypass local laws about replacement of this judge. Kasich, Mandel and the other crooked Republicans in Columbus clearly hate democracy. They constantly try to limit or eliminate voting rights in Ohio.
I am sure that Republican Dewine set it up so the money mostly went to paying demo costs for rich businesses across the State. Otherwise Youngstown would get a much larger chunk of $75 million based on the number of abandoned houses.
As long as Republicans are in charge of a State legislature they will sell out the public. They don't care if they are making a buck cutting corners on a child's education or your mothers healthcare. They want their friends to make a buck.
Corporate welfare. There should be a restriction that if they make a profit in any year, they must pay their way just like the rest of us. Why should I pay for their police, fire, and education institutions if they are making a profit?
It's about time someone talked reality. Sure having a center is great. But I am tired of paying a million dollars a year out of city tax dollars for that white elephant. Hire ten cops instead.
