Views from the swamp…
Living in the smack middle of one of the most economically depressed areas of the country, Northeast Louisiana, I’ve seen a bunch in my not so short lifetime… political makework programs, needless and wasteful bureaucracy, racial inequity, reverse racism, ignorance, un-education, welfare addiction, misunderstanding, rampant drug abuse, anti this, anti that, and just flat out being ignored by the powers that be. Just about any problem an area could have, we’ve had it here.
Basically a conservative person, I’m often mystified by what goes on, not only here, but across the country. Sometimes, no, often I’ll write about it. Here you’ll find my opinion.
Feel free to post your comments, as I enjoy reading your thoughts and opinions too. Please check back often!
