Re: “With Google putting Fiber in Austin, Kansas City Startup Village confronts an uncertain future

What exactly do companies like Local Ruckus do, and why should I care? It seems like it's just yet another redundant website full of info that is already widely available. The marketplace is flooded with them. Hell, half of the Pitch is essentially a print version of it.

Re: “With Google putting Fiber in Austin, Kansas City Startup Village confronts an uncertain future

OK - so I understand some concern that Google is announcing new cities without "finishing" the metro, but what were the expectations? Did these small businesses think Google was going to make them successful? Did the Village team have a good concept that was sustainable? Google originally only announced KCK and KCMO - those areas surrounding would only be gravy in their scope.

Re: “How TIF flushed Swope Ridge to make way for soccer

That is not true -- this particular piece of property has been abused by all because of the status of the area. It ranges from dumping to squaters to death and abuse. It is such a beautiful piece of property that because of the TIF and its priorities can never be seen. Purpose -- get a life!!

Does it take into account the tides and whether there's a full moon? Nothing like tech geeks trying to solve a problem which is way over their heads.

Re: “The Wolf Creek nuclear plant might melt down - in court

You know, France is like 80% powered by nuclear energy. So.. You greenies.. Nuke plants are probably the way to go. But clean coal (I hear the fools who say there is no clean coal), is the ACTUAL way to go. Cheaper fuel, safer, and less costly to build. But King omnipotent ruler Obama has killed all research into clean coal. Seriously, he has killed it. At present the US is 40% coal powered. So.. all the people that are part of the supply structure both in the coal itself, and in parts for these plants, maintenance, and operation... ALL ARE BEING F-ED OVER ... by the Obama administration. How many people is that? ... When your stated goal is to kill coal which in 2008 was 50% of ALL electricity in the US, ... How many jobs did Obama INTENTIONALLY kill? ... Seriously. Someone do the math on it.

And .. So you know, the Obama administration HAS FUNDED coal electric generation facilities IN OTHER COUNTRIES!!! to the tune of $800 million ... (google: Eskom Kusile, US Export Import Bank)

So.. cheap energy in other countries and expensive "green" energy in the US = manufacturing jobs going to other countries.

Wake up. Obama himself is shipping our jobs overseas in jacked up policy and regulation.
