Well said Ed! It's not feasible now. We should be addressing a crumbling, antiquated, infrastructure in desperate need of repair. Most recent reports show a steady decline in our population numbers. Economic indicators predict after the extended decline in the oil market, the housing market will begin to react the last quarter of 2016 with home prices tumbling and continuing to head south for the next 3 years. Add to that all the perks drying up and an aging population- Don't believe the 'happy' drivel being spewed - People are leaving! Look at the Parks Hwy North of Wasilla and Big Lake Road. Who designs this C---? What a mess! Meanwhile, if it rains hard or the wind blows the wrong way, a little snow falls, BAM! The power, the phone or both go out for extended periods of time- NO reason, apology or credit given.
