Doesn't matter, we haven't had fiscal conservatives in Washington in Decades. And if we don't get some soon it could be the beginning of the end. We can not long sustain this wild spending.

 :o Debts as far as the eye can see says the Congressional Budget office.  >:(

A new congressional report released Friday says the United States' long-term fiscal woes are even worse than predicted by President Barack Obama's grim budget submission last month.

Whether we are Democratic, Republican or Green, where is the money to come from to pay for all the ideas the Congress and White House are coming up with?

Engine Man,  This is why there is not another Tod engine around, the marxist killed capitalism.  You hear all this Urban agriculture being proclaimed and how we need a landbank to redistribute wealth, we heard the same crap before.  And the world heard the same thing and fortunately rejected it.  The Acorn army doesn't really want us to make our land produce, they want it handed to them, like a non-profit salary.  Now that more landowners want to make aquaculture an industry, oh, the capitalist are coming.  Interesting thing though, local businesses are quitely but strongly closing ranks against the entitled.

Whats wrong with personal gain?  All of the greatest advances in the history of the United Stateshave been done for personal gain.

Unfortunately, as is common with Youngstown, there seems to be some in the ACORN world who are drumming that this YoungstownShrimp Festival 2010 is for personal gain.  Let me place this now on the public record, there are now additional land owners who are going to grow shrimp also.  For the record a significant landholder who will grow shrimp this year is also an inner-city church.  Furthermore, no services nor funding has been requested from the City at all.  Any insinuation otherwise is just the knee-jerk reaction of the armed resistance of the USSY (Union of Socialist States of Youngstown).

Iwasthere, thanks for asking, better than I expected. 

Lyndsey is on vacation but the City gave me a list of vendors for sponsorship.  So far we really have some heavy hitters and I couldn't believe the interest in being on a commitee, so far:

1.  Schwebels                                   2.  Fireline
3.  M7                                             4.  Home Savings (downtown)
5.  Exal

At this point we are only interested in a few sponsors to form a commitee.  Our focus is to make this annual festival self supporting.  For instance, we plan to generate funding from "projection bombing" our advertisers on downtown buildings and merchandizing.  We are trying to be an example of self substinence and not "where's my HUD money?"  We are still open to volunteers.
keep all of us posted on the shrimp festival.

Since growing shrimp in Ohio has just been certified green, the Bobster should help me get all landowners to grow shrimp locally.  Just think of all the jobs that would be created and since we import 2 billion in shrimp a year, the market is not supplied locally.
i heard that  you are planning a shrimp festival in the Fall. how is that coming along?

Yes Dennis, quit your bitching and go start a green company!  Put up or SHUT UP!

sfc_oliver

So start a company and hire a few people. Keep us posted on how that works out.
