Back to the point that f-troupe made about the wealthy needing to take "protection" when leaving their armed complexes... This is something that I have been predicting going back years... The folks that are being screwed the most by the rich are those in the South and Midwest where incomes lag well behind the rest of the country... These are the folks who now are the ones front-'n-center trying to get the rich even richer... And, I might add, at the expense of the working class..

My premise is that if we don't get back to thinking "community" over "me, me, me" we will arrive at a point where the only people who can afford Pigeon Forge will be the wealthy and the only way they will be able to get there will be dangerous when Southern Man figures out the pea-under-the-shell game... I mean, very dangerous...

I mean, hstory is littered with "failed states" that became so corrupt that their rich didn't realize what Henry Ford instictually knew about business when he said, "If I don't pay mjy workers enough who will buy my cars"... Seems this is lost on the current crop of Boss Hogs...
