It’s time to take it back
We have allowed our elected public officials to keep secrets, not answer questions, refuse questions from the media under “fake news” and do whatever they wanted to do unchecked. We have created a class of “Untouchables” and now we pay, boy, do we.
While they’re eating $15 crab waffles over on LaSalle, the rest of the population of Waco gets to pay for all the out of towner “Fixer Upper” excitement and hype. It’s not Chip and Jo’s fault, nope, but the City and County surely do think that this publicity windfall is going to counter the bad publicity of an out of control law enforcement presence, “come on vacation, leave on probation”, overly religious hypocrisy, Baylor, rapes, cover ups, good deals for the rich, bad deals for the poor.
You the citizen are paying for a dream. Not a reality. A dream, and it’s not your dream, it’s theirs. It’s Baylor’s dream, it’s the City of Waco’s Dream, it’s the County’s Dream town, it isn’t real.
