In response to Ms. Bourbeau’s letter in the April 3 edition of the Bulletin, TIEC has already drug us down.

It has ruined landscapes, drug away topsoil and forced people to leave their homes due to taxes. These are scars that, for many of us, will not be healed by a transient fist full of dollars.

It seems that the TIEC County (formerly Polk County) Commissioners continue to give the TIEC backers whatever they request.

You made some assertions regarding the types of people associated with various sporting and social events. If I have to make a choice, I will choose drunken and loud over entitled, elitist and condescending.
