Mayor Bob, WTF?
#34
In case it isn't apparent, my last post was to point out how ridiculous the argument is to shut down lakefront industry just because their employees alledgely don't live in Waukegan.

WalktheWalk, we are in the worse recession in our lifetimes (yes, I'm not that old). Why would anyone want to shut down a viable business? Anyone that ever had a economics class knows that the pros of business in a community outweigh the cons 99.9% of the time. The only exception is if the industry was polluting, which the ones on our lakefront aren't.

The trucks tearing up the roads is not a valid argument. If that was the case let's shut down Waukegan Steel and any other company in Waukegan that receives and/or delivers by trucks. Most of the roads they use are State owned anyways.

I am not an owner of the lakefront industries trying to maintain status quo. Actually, I'm a resident that knows we needs businesses and jobs in this community in order to turn it around. We'll never attract future businesses as long as some of our residents (and Alderman) are public about their anti-business ideas towards our lakefront industries. We'll continue to see our businesses lured to Wisconsin for the tax (and political) incentives.
