Actually the Black Hills area is growing more than it ever has, it’s real attractive to businesses that need low taxes. Out in rapid Valley and south of rapid city it’s exploding with growth. Ellsworth chosen as training base, first to receive B-21 nuclear bombersThe Indian reservations are a huge drag on South Dakota...This is supposed to be a republic, not a shit eating democracy. The problem with socialist ideas Everything about him Has to be mandatory for everybody even though they can’t possibly work for conservatives.You think "socialist ideas” can’t work in a democracy?
In the South, there are more "Conservatives" on welfare than not. In fact, it's so bad that the northern richer states sends their poorer Red State Cousins money to keep them from blowing away from the first stiff breeze. And that includes SD where you live. Colorado is a purple state and we are financially well off yet we send money through the Federal Government to your state (among others) so that your state can at least pretend to be part of the nation.
I propose that each state keeps what they have and only sends the minimums to the Federals. Your state wants to play Deep Red, fine. That's up to you but you play it on your own dime. How long before SD, ND and Wyoming has to become on big state just to make ends meet.
Not just the Indian Rezes. The Welfare in Rancid City is out of control. It's lost a whole bunch of jobs in the last 30 years. Any city who's sole income is from a Military Base is going to be a welfare city. Not just in SD, but everywhere. I have a bit more experience in seeing that than you do. And I have watched cities and towns lose their Military bases. Some actually thrive but most turn into ghost towns. Since Rancid City has run out it's primary corporate businesses, guess which way it will go.
Be careful, almost all of the Military Bases I have been stationed at have closed. If my luck holds out, Ellsworth may be next. And what then for you income? You are a bit old to learn how to make beads and baskets.
I have not had better business...
Rapid City, South Dakota Economy
Notice, the increase would be from the addition of the B-21. But did you account for the long range loss of the B-2s? The B-21 increase is short sighted. And then that is only connected to the Military. No City the size of Rancid City should EVER depend strictly on the Military Base. Only Box Elder should do that. For those that aren't aware of the Population of SD, Box Elder is the Off Base Military Housing for Ellsworth AFB and it's the #3 largest city in SD in population.
