The snowball effect

To the Editor:

Trickle down economics; what a joke. Pissing all over us. Just another ponzi scheme. Laughing all the way to the bank.

Not creating jobs, but continuing to downsize; hiring only part-time employees, making it impossible for people to invest in themsevles to improve their lives.

I have a new concept. It's called the snowball effect. It's where we build colleges all over the State of Maine and educate the world.

Everything would follow -- stores, restaurants, laundromats, more teachers, then, of course, recreation, skiers, snowmobile trails and equipment, etc.

The casino wasn't a bad idea, but it doesn't benefit us all. This is a beautiful state, we need to invest in our vast resources for tourist, come together to implement ideas for small business to flourish. It's all in the management.

That's why I'll be running again for selectman. I believe with new leadership we can accomplish so much more working together.
