[Vision2020] Hawkins protest

[Bill London]

The Hawkins development will be sucking water from a very limited aquifer (think underground finite pool) that Moscow relies on.  To replace that water, Hawkins will be using the rights to water in a different pool.  That is why Moscow is correct in protesting this shell game.
This is a pro-Moscow decision, not anti-business. 
I am very glad the city is looking out for our long-term best interests

  A few questions for Moscow Residents:

  Why is it that Moscow pursues policies even when they CLEARLY are destructive to the community? Such as not letting any business touch our horrible icky water?

  Why is it that Moscow is anti-business? 

  Why does Moscow lynch mob any citizen that disagrees with the majority?

  Why does Moscow say it is liberal, yet all city policies discriminate against Gays and Lesbians?

  Why does Moscow say it is liberal, yet it doesn't even have adequate services, sidewalks, and programs for the disabled?

  Why does Moscow say it is tolerant yet hates others in the community for their religion?

  Why does Moscow want to reduce its population? Why does it want to not have jobs? 

  How long can Moscow survive with negative job growth and population growth, and continue to have revenues when its largest tax base is government workers who are paid only through the collection of taxes? Who are the producers in Moscow? They all seem to be leaches.

  Just stuff to ponder as the University, Moscow, and Latah go to hell as our local Liberal Yahoos Leaches destroy the community by protesting everything that might put food on somebody's table and makes Moscow a community worth living in.

  Best,

  Donovan
