We didn't even have a national monetary system when the Constitution was written. <br /><br />There is a difference between an economic system and a system of government. Our Founders actually knew that.<br /><br />Capitalism is defined over hundreds of years in economic books. The role of government such that it enhances and protects capitalism so that it works as intended has been described in economic books and papers for centuries now.<br /><br />Our Founders were well educated , some self-educated because they read non-fiction books written by the best scholars of their age and past ages. They knew it was important to understand WHY and HOW systems work well or fail.<br /><br />This insane new literal interpretation of The Constitution they wrote would stun them. There was great effort to make sure it was broad enough and general enough in language to allow for historical changes that would surely come.<br /><br />I know this because I descend from a Founder. They wrote letters and kept diaries and their meetings were transcribed in summaries.<br /><br />It's fine not to have gained knowledge. It's very dangerous to not acknowledge what you don't know and haven't bothered to learn.<br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-78359894008158710942022-07-12T19:58:44.138-05:002022-07-12T19:58:44.138-05:00Seems to me it would be cheaper to purchase the fe...Seems to me it would be cheaper to purchase the few homes that are subject to flooding and tearing them down rather than spend $4MM to repair the creek.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-16287229668223923502022-07-12T09:52:55.223-05:002022-07-12T09:52:55.223-05:009:12 AM said

None of what you said is in the US Constitution or Bill of Rights. Nor is it in the Constitution of the Great State kf Mississippi. <br /><br />The problem is ignorance and complacency. People in Mississippi are willfully ignorant. And as long as I obey the law, no government agency has the authority to stop me or my progeny, from exploiting the ignorant moronic dregs who inhabit this city and state. <br /><br />If you don’t like it then turn the TV off and read a book.

And, harder still that anyone would take his "word" ,much less a handshake, seriously.<br />That said, after the flood of 1979, it was quite clear that White Oak creek and others needed maintenance that had been ignored for decades. <br />It was also clear that the city had been negligent for decades in building/development codes and had allowed such to take place in ways that were " pennywise" but "pound foolish". Jackson developers and builders profited mightily from sub-par work and got away with highway robbery on their leases which made it harder for new businesses to get established. Not only do they have to " finish out" the interior, they have to fork over a percentage of sales/profits to the building owner. The lease payment just isn't enough though was, last I looked exorbitant.<br />And, of course, no building owner is required to maintain their building as we see with those abandoned. <br />Capitalism was never intended to be a license to steal. It has always required a " level playing field" established by government to enhance competition, not squelch it!

We lived to find something to do in that creek. Fishing, whacking water moccasins, border war with the Leber boys on the other side of the creek, we were there just about every day. My dear late friend Richie E. found a massive prehistoric shark tooth and a cannon ball in that creek. Had some deep holes and some really nice gravel bars. <br /><br />But that was a time before everything got built up upstream. What was once woods and pastures is now parking lots and buildings. Recent attempts to mitigate downstream flooding by using retention ponds in developments probably hasn't worked as well as planned. The old creek would "get up" but not very often.
