The users of the lake deserve better.
This endeavor will have a plan put together by experts. The surrounding community will have the ability to have input into the plan.
Development is not my purpose. I would expect the surrounding communities to see potential economic advantages from any improvement. That includes paved roads, public landings and stocked fish.
If this site does not want me to continue bringing ideas to the forefront or warning them of legislation, just say so. We have the chairman of Ways and Means in Sumter and myself on the committee and chairing the subcommittee that has DNR and the Conservation Bank Budgets. We have an opportunity to make a difference.
I enjoy the playful banter on here and love to get your goat on occasion, BUT i have had enough of the personal insults, slanderous comments, and conspiracy theories. You can read about what we did instead of me asking your opinion.
The site appreciates you bringing ideas to the forefront. What the site also appreciates is the ability to debate you, voice its opinion, and have discussion that reflects different opinions/views.
What I don’t appreciate is your bullying of folks that don’t share your opinion. The fact that you don’t seem to realize that you’re a bully speaks to your entitlement and lack of self awareness. There is enough precedent in issues you have previously brought to this site to question your motives. You are not above that question, nor am I.
It is clear that you are in a powerful position, and I can only hope that you use that position to better the resources of SC. If this project makes the state of SC a better place, I’ll applaud your efforts. I’ve admitted that I am not anywhere near knowledgeable on this topic, much less an expert.
I do think it’s fair for this site to question your motivation. If your bakehouse remains a bakehouse, I hope you and your family enjoy it. If it becomes more than that, I hope the rising tide raises all ships. If you can look me in the eye and tell me that your political agenda has never resulted in your family’s financial gain, I’ll be out. No poll needed.
