Airport Problem

Posted
Editor, Times-Union:

The airport problem is very easy to fix. Underground power lines, which should have already been done a long time ago.

Do not close the road as I said a year ago. One day they will expand the airport, so like the letter the other day simply put in a tunnel or someway to raise the surface.

We all know only the rich use the airport and when did they ever care about us (common folk)? The old saying, "The rich get richer and poor get poorer," is true. Just get a list of people that use and have their fancy jets at the airport and are in inconvenienced by having to do what you and I do.

Oh, God forbid that they might have to drive to Fort Wayne or South Bend to fly somewhere. How many important trips do they have to take? To close a road that so many people use and would very inconvenienced, travel time for our kids going to school and the danger of having to detour on to heavy traffic at the time that kids go to school and get out of school is just one out of so many reasons not to even consider closing the road.

Wake up and use what God gave you, a brain to figure out a solution to this so-called problem brought about by a few rich people and causing so many problems to the average persons, mom's taking kids to school, people going to work, or maybe an emergency etc.

The people that have considered closing the road should move to where they would be more comfortable.
