>>Good for Colorado....

 

Colorado Springs. 

 

The rest of the state is generally still scurrying along, unimpeded, toward Californization - with uncontrolled McGrowth and the increased dependencies upon government that come with it.

 

 

Colorado Spring's limited access to water is thus a blessing in disguise - it  creates a temporary opportunity for citizens to stop and think:  "can our city really afford, to grow?" 

 

Unfortunately, the ability of We The Citizens to utilize that opportunity is hamstrung by the corrupt political environment here in "Little Chicago".... Where all that's required to grow government-controlled infrastructure is a rubber stamp from the City Council ala increased "fees" levied via government owned enterprises.

 

Securing funds for capital improvements via these "Fees" is a blatant circumvention of the spirit behind TABOR - our Tax Payer Bill of Rights; but this fact is evidently irrelevant to our City Council, and irrelevant to the Apparatchik Elite pulling their strings.

Apparatchik

аппаратчик

Russian term
Translit	apparatchik
English	functionary

Apparatchik (Russian: аппара́тчик, Russian pronunciation: [ɐpɐˈratɕɪk] plural apparatchiki) is a Russian colloquial term for a full-time, professional functionary of the Communist Party or government; i.e., an agent of the governmental or party "apparat" (apparatus) that held any position of bureaucratic or political responsibility, with the exception of the higher ranks of management. James Billington describes one as "a man not of grand plans, but of a hundred carefully executed details."[1] It often is considered a derogatory term.[2]...

Growth is OK until it outstrips your resources, and gridlocks everything....

Greedy contractors, and corrupt politicians could care less about gridlock and strained resources...They only care about more taxes, fees and profits...Then when the water runs out, and the roads are bumper to bumper they want charge people even more to use these resources...

Watch these AHs give permits for new 2,000 unit apartment/condo buildings, with little concern for existing roads or water supplies, electrical grid etc.......These people should be prosecuted and jailed...

lol, California has basically put the brakes on that BS....The greedy developers would pave over Arlington National Cemetery and the greedy political tax parasites would rubber stamp it if they could.

Those days of total uncontrolled gawdy, development, where the resources will not support it, are all but over here.
