“...Turn the abandoned parts of that ville into a DOD USAF civil engineers, Navy Seabees and Army corp of engineers training ground...”
That’s actually a seriously good idea...the only thing I can see problematical with it is we’re STILL spending taxpayer dollars on people who basically will go back to their old ways the minute the last olive drab deuce-and-a-half packs up and leaves.
New Orleans is a perfect example. They re-elected the maggot mayor that left them to drown, just because he was black.
People have to WANT help themselves. Some will and will get a leg up and prosper, but most won’t, because it’s easier to be led than lead.
But then again, maybe it’s a victory if only a few make it.
It’s “abandoned” property .....not giving shit back. Sell it back and provide new tax base, manufacturing and jobs and people who see a clean slate will build and buy.
No more free rides if I had the keys to this outfit !
