STLAJ's Blog

So Darlene Green and Jim Shrewsbury continue to ensure that St. Louis has as much difficulty as possible moving into the next millenium.  We are talking about 9 acres of land that is already being utilized for BJC parking. Not to mention the additional millions of dollars the deal would have generated for park maintenance. This was a great deal for St. Louis's future health care needs and our continued national recognition for park excellence and DG and JS blew it for the rest of us. They took the typical Liberal line and caved to the pressure of a very vocal minority. I hope they all enjoy the 9 acres of green space when businesses that make St. Louis special look outside of our area when expansion is NEEDED.  Just remember that these are the same people who would prefer the government be able to confiscate your private property to be utilized for the public good.  The modern environmental movement is also a home for wayward Socialist and Communists.  They know that media hyped environmental concerns offer a clear path to the diminishing of personal property rights and the slowing of private business expansion.
