More Traffic Woes

The word is traffic isn't getting any better on Concord Road. Well , why should it? Afterall the roads in this area called Franklin were designed around those who cared more for making money and not serviceable communities. With unrestricted growth of course traffic will increase.
Of course , many people have made jokes about Franklin Folley Trolley. With the price of gas these days , maybe the trolley has finally found its day. Somewhere in all of the fuss there has to be answers for everyone to smile about. Its up to the people to make it happen.

Say It With Taxes

By now most everyone has got their new tax raises in the mail. People are wondering how it is in such a poor economy their taxes could go up so high so fast and they can not figure it out.
Well figure it out no more people because read on and you will learn as to why.
Do you remember the city building a Taj MaHal for the police department? Do you remember it costing 64 Million dollars? That big buck of chunk put a hole in the city coffers and now they are wanting to fill it back up.
Isnt this a wonderful town to live in while gas prices march steadily onwards to the five dollar mark?
Now do you understand why the hospital is also up for sale?
Welcome to Franklin everyone.

Gun Laws Are Expanding

Did you know gun permit holders are getting more places to carry their guns? Did you know the real powers that be in this town are opposed? No Shit. It seems permit holders scare the Dickens out of these people.
I wonder why?

Topics of Discussion

Of course not everyone in Franklin was invited to the gathering. Ive got an email asking what was going on. Well selling the hospital was one topic being talked about. It seems there were those who were dividing up the pie profits and Jay J0hnson was of course due his slice. You know its interesting at the corruption in this town. It seems it does so much good and yet not everyone gets a piece of that pie. Not everyone gets help from the police when asked for it and not everyone gets a piece of pie simply because they are not on the inside of the circle. Not everyone benefits from this towns corruption. Its like the bank next door to the police building. Not everyone can use it. You have got to have what they want to be allowed to ride on their train and that right there pretty much describes this town and what its all about dont it? Not everyone got to party and enjoy the free Moonshine did you? Were you there? Were you even invited? You know its like Street Scape. We all pay city taxes but not all of us got a share of Street Scape dollars. And if you are like the Franklin Koolaid blogger you shut down because of the harassment you get from the police for talking about it.
HEY prove me wrong here people.
Historical note - before the days of World War II not everyone was invited to become good little Nazis. The more things change the more things remain the same.

The Gathering

How many of you were at the party over the weekend? Maybe I should call it the gathering. It was an interesting crowd. While there I learned that dope is legally sold in the city of Franklin and I also learned that Pussy is also legally sold in this fair city and I even learned that good old boy Moonshine is sold legally in this town because it cures Gout and besides many of Franklin higher ranks need it for medicinal purposes.
Aaaaaaaah yes Franklin. Has it really changed over the years or is it the new faces that give it a new look that are doing the same old thing thats always been done here before? I dunno but it sure was interesting to see some Shit faces over the shine. The Grass was doing a pretty good job too.
