Vote OUT the SCDC Chamber crowd, or we stay right where we are. That is a fact. They can’t help themselves, they honestly believe they are the Chosen Ones and the only ones who can bring jobs here, when increasingly, I’m beginning to see they are the problem preventing moving forward. These guys are stuck on big dirty, outdated industries that NO ONE would take on in an educated society. The rails were abandoned for a very good reason. The professionals who “sold” it to us are still laughing, they didn’t even have to pay to rip up the system, which is unusable, and they knew it.
This is nothing but another endless Port Hole for the funding of the Port of Coos Bay , just like the Ferry, the T Dock, oh, but don’t forget, they bought an ice machine. Regulated. The airport, etc. These guys make Mrs. Winchester and her Mystery House look like Leggo’s. Buy a piece of crap then suck hundreds more millions of Other Peoples’ Money for the next ten years, assures them of a job don’t it? How’s our unemployment numbers?
According to two ladies of the organization, like the chamber and SCDC, the chosen are Cribbins, Messerle and Sweet. Look for softball questions to these three.
