If you are correct, how do you explain Michigan? The State is surrounded on 3 sides by water. Stand anywhere in the State and you're no more than 6 kilometers from a natural water source - yet, the State is a basket case and Detroit is dead or dying. I think Mr. Expert needs to rethink.
By the way, I am from Northwest Indiana and I have taken hundreds of thousands of dollars out of Northwest Indiana and out of Ohio and shipped it all to my business in Bloomington, Indiana. Go figure...
PUC is top heavy with administrators. Their salaries are incredible. They have Deans on top of Deans.
IUN has a bloated payroll too with Assistant Deans, Associate Deans, Deans, Vice Chancellors, Chancellors. I kid you not. There are 5 or 6 sets of administrative levels. I mean come on. Are you people stupid or what? You're the ones paying the taxes and tuition to support this lunacy. Just make it IUPU-Northwest and an entire group of bloated, fatheaded administors can be lopped off at the knees. Personally, I wouldn't care if it were the IUN group or the PUC group, but one of 'em HAS to go!
Unless or until Lake County can get its act together, I don't see how things are going to change. Yes, knocking down some buildings in Gary frees up some space but beyond that, what good does it do?
The NWI glass company was on its last legs. The Tae Kwon Do chop chop shop had long since closed down. The recycling shop is the place where it all happened, right? It wasn't much of a place, was it? The only business that I wanted to patronize was the massage parlor located at one time several block south. It was called "The East China Sea" or some such. What happened to that store? Now there was an establishment worth saving!
G'day!
First, let me say that I just don't get this guy's first name. Is it Mike? Is it Michael? What's the deal with "Micah"? I have never heard of such a thing. "Micah Pollak?" With all due respect to our Polish brethren - who are some of the hardest working, finest people in this nation - who names their kid "Micah Pollak"? Why would IUN hire him? Where is that complete idiot Donald Coffin? That guy was an even bigger dope than Micah. Are you people crazy or what? I'd suggest changing the name to something the rest of us can deal with. What's wrong with "Michael Pollak"? We all love Polish people. What kind of an economist is name "Micah"? Does this stuff glitter or something?
