Fracking and Roads

[Youngstownshrimp]

Sarge, we need to throw all the energy companies out, V& M  , Dearing pipe, even YSU and their new energy program , capitalist pigs!  All the billions they are throwing around is no good for the welfare class to see, it may make them want to work and this we cannot have.  We do not need gas or oil, we need more wind mills, solar, this is green and available, these evil rich people only want to pollute the world, they know that tidal, wind and solar can easily replace fossil fuel.  It is the big lie, I want solar now!

And all this time I thought that these trucks paid for a license and that the companies paid taxes just like everyone else......

Sorry Why? Town......

Again, you show that you know little about the fracking industry and the destruction it does pose to
rural roads....

Please read up on the problems heavy truck traffic causes on roads that were not built to substain such heavy
traffic.....

Please google the many internet sites that show how heavy the truck traffic becomes on these rural roads and
the damage they cause to such roads and to the driveways and entrance ways to the drilling sites....

How  so-called pro fracking experts can  pass judgement on this subject when they fail to educate themselves on the
situation is beyond me.....

p.s. I doubt if you could become a porn star.....

[Why?Town]

Maybe we should just prohibit any industry that needs a truck for anything. No steel industry, no aluminum industry, no automobile industry, no logging, no farming, no retail, no banking, no hyro nor solar energy.

I guess we'll all just have to become porn stars.

Another negative thing about fracking......the heavy truck traffic will destroy county and township roads.....
and the fracking companies and truck companies won't come to the aid of county and township governments
to help maintain and repair the roads......

Yes, fracking will mean big money for the fracking companies...but that money will not filter down to local
governments to help maintain and repair roads.....the burden for these repairs will once again fall on local
governments to ask for new levies to help paid for road repairs....

Thanks for adding another burden to local residents concerning fracking....
