    Yeah it’s insane to me that these failing businesses due to lack of giving a shit will soon have their hand out for Government money and some are eager to prop them up.

    Maybe actually have local news, and maybe actually generate interesting stories rather than just printing the AP wire and calling it ‘town name press’.
