local stuff

ok here on stx we have 3 resort projects that have made it through czm and are onto the next steps,if only the tree huggers and do gooders would leave them alone stx might actually be making some forward progress,diegeo will make captain morgan rum here for the next 60 years here starting in 2012,cruzan and ronrico rums will also be made here for 30 years,we have a home depot breaking ground on the 2nd of november and an ihop opening soon at sunny isle, things are looking up for the "red headed step" child of the usvi and it's about time. Alot of the problems here on stx stem from the fact that alot of stx politicians here are the "whats in it for me type of people" corruption is the main game here, recently is was published in the paper that the usvi generates 19 billion in yearly revenue and 16 billion of that comes from stx and we receive the least amount of service our 2 sister islands get everything because that is where the capitol is located, we've tried to breakaway in the past but it won't happen anytime soon, we want self rule here,we may be one territory here but we are 3 very distinct and separate cultures and islands, stj is like newport RI stt is like manhattan and stx is like the midwest, we have alot of really fucked up politicians here that want "native" only rule but they know longer have the majority,lol i'm tired of this rant so i'll stop now, more later

  1. What's wrong with tree-huggers and do-gooders? They're better than corrupt politicians...

  2. TRW--glad to see you have surfaced. I think a blog is a terrific vehicle for you and I know I will enjoy following it, if you don't mind. I didn't realize that the home depot is breaking ground--that's great.
