Say “Yes” To the Landfill

dave · 04-21-2003

Let’s face facts- Perry Co., and more specifically Uniontown, needs something to bring in some revenue. If a landfill can do what they say it can financially, then they should be glad to receive it. This is a town who’s only draw is a annual festival of drugs, stolen goods, and pornography wrapped up under the pretense it’s a “religious celebration”.

So what else can Uniontown offer? There are some nice houses in the area. I’ve seen them with “for sale” signs up for ages now. So why can’t the owners sell these mansion size homes for the price of a double-wide? Location, location, location. Folks would rather live in a trailer park in Demopolis than live in a palace in Uniontown. It’s basically impossible to create jobs in a town that no one wants to live in. Crime has been so bad there the town has become a punch line. Kids have their bikes stolen While they are riding them. Seniors in wheelchairs are “chair-jacked” in their own neighborhoods. Drugs are so bad there, you can fail a drug test simply by walking barefoot through town. Schools change classes to the sounds of gun shots instead of school bells.

Bottom line, this is probably the only industry this town can attract. I think they could put up with a few bad smells if they can see improvement throughout the town. No one in Demopolis complained about the smells from Gulf States. Look how that turned out.

A lady told me the other night about a woman that got dragged out of her car when she was stopped at the red light..The odds of their one patrol cop being around are pretty slim, I'll just run the thing next time I have to drive through. I'd rather do that than have to kill some crackhead trying to steal from me.

I'd rather do the world a favor and kill the crackhead if he's trying to jack me. That ****hole needs to be nuked.

Good old Uniontown. The problem with the peeple in control or Uniointown is probobly that they are still stuck in what the town used to be. Uniontown...much like Greensboro... Used to have some VERY rich people living there and spending money back a long time ago. But as time went....It was proved to be a inapt location for the new industries. Industries now require different things than what was needed back then. O'l UT does need to just bite the bullet and get the landfill......who knows, it may just turn that city around. But I will say this....if a landfill does turn the city around....I think that it will be a big statement of how bad the town really is!!

I wonder if the revenue brought into that craphole wouldn't get mismanaged or spent on useless crap by their city council (if they actually have such a thing).
