Referendum defeat steels RDA opposition.
The RDA has been taking millions of dollars out of the pockets of the citizens of Gary, Hammond, and East Chicago. Let us not forget Lake County also as a whole. In addition, it has taken millions from Porter County. All of this has been of no value to any of the citizens, only to the thieves named to the RDA by the Lake County Democratic charlatans.
What does the citizens of Gary, Hammond, and East Chicago have to do with building a railroad to Lowell and Valparaiso? This is taking money from those who are in need and giving it to the usual thieves of Lake County. This is being done to the tune of $3.5 million each year, from each community. What is the economic benefit to the citizens of those communities? NONE!!!
It is time to remove for malfeasance, incompetency, and general ethical incompetence all the politicians and appointed officials involved with the RDA and RTA. No one wants them and they are of no use to anyone and have not been since they were created four years ago.
It was all a political trade off with the downstate Republicans as a way for the local Democrats, i.e. Tom McDermott, Jr., to steal more money from the citizens. It is time to end this charade by voting against all the incumbents now in office.


An interesting point Professor, I was wondering during the whole debate in Porter County earlier in the year when the residents of Lake County would note that the RDA is a really good deal for Porter County but not as much for Lake.
