Ramsters contribution to Yelm economy and cause of growth
Posted: Sat Oct 02, 2010 3:16 pm
It's difficult enough for me to handle jz's full page ads in the local newspaper proclaiming the 10s of thousands of dollars ramsters have contributed to Yelm's economy.... .... It's even more difficult to hear "normal" people/people to whom it would never occur to attend a jz event - proclaim how much ramsters have contributed to the economy and that they are the cause of the housing boom in Yelm and area.
Where's that barf icon?
The simplest most obvious thing to be said re all the development in this area is -- TENS OF THOUSANDS of military personnel and their families. Ramsters are not the folks buying the houses in all the developments. Even the 'bought and paid for' Fire Dept told me that years and years ago - development had begun in this area before folks who attended jz's events were known as ramsters.....
While trying in utter frustration to point out this obvious to someone. out of my mouth came:
they couldn't even keep QFC open!!!!! -- seemed that the majority of QFC shoppers were ramsters - and even during the heydey of wine ceremonies apparently there weren't enough of them buying enough contributing to yelm's economy to keep the store open. hmmmmmmmm
and Steve Klein got what - 28 votes when he ran for mayor.? Out of 15,000 people, hmmmmmm
