Sewer and Water Infrustructure in Walsenburg
A lot of money, time, and effort was expended on the Northlands Sewer Project which is in the area north of the city. About 20 landowners received the benefits of new water, gas, and sewer lines at a cost of several million dollars.
At the time questions to the city council about the aging infrustructure in the city were met with assurances that a stategy of replacing pipes using a section by section approach. The northeast section would be first. Some were concerned that sewer service lines were blocks long to reach the nearest main line. Oh, that would be addressed. Of course, the new sewer line would go directly to the customer's house. No problem with long service lines there.
The Northlands project is done. It is complete with miles of line to reach the treatment plant and an expensive lift pump to push waste over the humpback. How about the new sewer and water pipes for the city? When are they going to be in place?

Kavanaugh Confirmations
What an incredible waste of time and energy! This doesn't even address the amount of money spent on the hearings including security. What happened to the idea of "what can I do for my country?" The polarization of the population seems to be over the question of destroying our nation or building our nation.
A rational person would see what freedom brings to our society. It even makes our country a magnet to people all over the world wanting to enjoy the freedoms we offer. Why would anyone want to destroy this great country?
Self elevation is the only thing that would explain this. If a person cannot sell his political ideas, he falls back on the free stuff theory. If you tell people they will get free food and money for supporting you, it is a phishing scheme. Socialism has never worked before, but sell the line that it is different this time. Don't mention Venezuela.
We are enjoying an economic revival not seen in years if ever. Why would anyone want to deny this? Maybe it doesn't fit the narrative. The powers that have enjoyed free reign in government so many years do not want to step down. They will do anything to keep power. That is exactly why they must go.
