The State had a very good article on DHEC today and it is first in a series that continues through Saturday. read it carefully, and read between the lines. look at how power and money cause corruption and favoritism. I know I will be called down for saying this, but DHEC has the power to do what they say they cannot, even if it is just being an advocate for a better and healthier environment, which they say they cannot, according to the article.
When it comes to our government, state and city, money, which is power, buys favoritism and preferential treatment. Unfortunately, we the people, let it happen. We are a "Go along to get along" city and state, and allow ourselves to be treated as still on the plantation, with the massa still cracking the whip and we just taking it. When will we ever learn we as a group have power? Maybe the Obama event has started a little of that, along with erasing the notions of color making the choice for both black and white people.
Here is the first article: http://www.thestate.com/local/story/591534.html.

I highly recommend John Rosemond's articles to you. Though they are about children and parenting, they apply very well to adults and basic human nature. I constantly point out that adults never seem to lose any emotions they had as a child, they only gain 2 more. Find the website at http://www.rosemond.com/view/389/21753/Weekly-Column---111108.html. You will also find the weekly column in the Sunday State Life & Style section. I find it quite interesting and a must read for me weekly.
