Griffin & Pyle strike again.                                  September 7, 2010<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Stack \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcem & Pack \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcem.  Build it and they will come.  Folks, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s all about FUNDING.  Just like Beran at UAFS, another \u00e2\u20ac\u01535-Year Plan\u00e2\u20ac\u009d foisted on taxpayers\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6shades of the old Soviet. (Can you imagine what this bunch will do to us in 5 years left to their own devices?)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

An article by Ben Boulden in today\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Times Record (9\/7\/10) is supposed to be taken seriously and absolutely no laughing.   Fort Smith, a city of some 83,000 residents,  is being victimized by a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153poll\u00e2\u20ac\u009d of 70 people.  These 70 respondents saw a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153high need\u00e2\u20ac\u009d for more housing support for the so-called homeless.  Question: how many of these 70 people who are desirous of increasing welfare and parasitism pay income or property taxes?  <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Fort Smith Community Development Department (now that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a mouthful) sponsored this ludicrous survey.  They claim to have 500 \u00e2\u20ac\u0153clients\u00e2\u20ac\u009d per month and the number is growing exponentially.  Calling these people \u00e2\u20ac\u0153clients\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is akin to Federal & State governments calling welfare recipients \u00e2\u20ac\u0153customers\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.  <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Ms. Gabriel, a functionary in this welfare program states \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Low-income people need to have available more vouchers so as to make standard housing more affordable.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d  Standard housing?  <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Now enter Ken Pyle, Richard Griffin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s enabler, with the statement of the day.  \u00e2\u20ac\u0153With more funding the Housing Authority could accommodate the working poor, the disabled and more homeless.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d  Build it and they will come.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You boys did not absorb the 97\/3 rule, so here it is again.  3% of Americans cannot take care of themselves mentally or physically, therefore their every need should be tended to without question.  97% should be ignored and it will take them 2 weeks to achieve their desired standard of living\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6.off the welfare teat. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Back to the Riverfront. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

As often proclaimed\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6Fort Smith is awash in taxpayers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 money, e.g. $62,000 to pay for its share in hiring a consulting firm regarding Bennie Westphal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 85 riverfront acreage.  What was the total that Cushman & Wakefield of Dallas charged for the consultation, including the Chamber of Commerce and Westphal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Any realtor worth his\/her salt could ascertain in 10 minutes the potential of Westphal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 85 acres. Apparently the only positive thing to come out of the grand theft was the revelation that Fort Smith could not support a baseball stadium which would seat more than 3,500.  In reality, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s twice too large, undergirded by the fact that baseball is a dying spectator sport. Do the research and observe the NW Arkansas\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Naturals.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

If the riverfront has so much potential, get out of the way and let the Westphals or whoever they sell the property to develop it.  But each of you public servants\u00e2\u20ac\u009d know well that anything put down there, i.e. the Marshall\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Museum will out of necessity demand taxpayer subsidies if allowed to achieve fruition.   <\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Get out of the entertainment business and adhere to the proper functions of government.  An excellent start would be the streets and sewers.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The easiest job in the whole world is spending someone else\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s money.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Kindest regards,<\/span><\/p>\n
