From Rhino Times Reader “Term Limits.”  (This was actually a comment on a story but I am running it in this space because it does raise an important question as to whether the incentives structure in the area has gone too far.  After all, it is likely most of these companies would locate here anyway and, since those companies are expanding, it means it is money taken from strapped taxpayers and being given to prosporous companies. This  also raises the question of whether rocket speed growth is always a good thing for a community.) 

I have an idea, let’s prohibit anonymous corporations from receiving incentives. If a corporation wants to move here, make it known to the public. Maybe we don’t want the business in our county. We have a right to know who is taking our property tax money BEFORE it is given out. Why should the public’s water supply be threatened by growth that the government orchestrated…

The British police and media are at pains to stress that the perpetrators are “British”.  I had to do a lot of digging to learn that the attackers are 32 and 35 year old negroes. If that term is now one of the many considered offensive, I apologise. They can’t be called African-American, “British-African” is not a term, and one is from the Caribbean anyway. And negro is the correct term for their race.
In other words, there isn’t a British bone in their bodies. The media are lying…

When I purchased the concert tickets, I wasn’t living in Greensboro yet….
