Kudos To 2 Letter Writers

  • Sunday, July 13, 2014

Kudos to Ms. Parton and Mr. Wilson.

Ms. Parton's assessment of the VW situation could not have been better expressed and I feel certain there are many other  Chattanoogans who agree with her. Maybe a little more attention to making cars and a little less making deals with the union?  Can't see a VW in my future. 

 Mr. Wilson's question about  EPB is a valid one.  My area in East Brainerd and many around me have not been offered the services of EPB and several large apartment complexes in the East Ridge area have actually been turned down for service.
 Exclusive use?  Wow, tell me any business owner in this town who wouldn't like to be offered that privilege,  but the last I heard we're still a free market society.
 
Wouldn't it be great if our politicians had just a little of the common sense insight of these two folks?
