They just started the demolition of the old Edgewood on Altamont.  Sad to see that building go - it's been like a landmark.  Hopefully on to a newer, better looking building - and yet another vacancy at Walmart/Shoporama Plaza

Just wondering, this is an improvement going on in Rotterdam.  How much tax money was spent to remove the old building and move this business down the road?  After all, we're only supposed to praise businesses that get tax money to come in, right, i.e. Recovery Room and Berkshire Bank?  And where else do we get the Metroplex money, besides behind the Iron Curtain in RIP?

If it weren't for FDG this would have never happened!! Along with the Recovery Grill and the the veterans taking over the old draper school. All because of the leadership of FDG!!! He should take all the credit for this!! He cleaned up the senior center too!!

After all that is what he campaigned on and the dems and cons were rallying right behind him!! He is such a great super that the dems and cons should re-endorse him for the next run!!!

If FDG gets credit for this, does he get blame for the empty strip mall formerly known as Hannaford Shopping Plaza?

Ron actually posted a quote like this on the forum before he got orders from SaVAGE and TJ Hooker to disavow good ol' FDG.

The Pioneer bank that was in the Rotterdam plaza near Hannaford is building its own building on the property. DVOR tried to say it was because of the political leadership when I in fact knew the irons were in the fire by the bank a lot sooner.

A bank.....ANOTHER F'EN BANK......that brings foot traffic into town for what?????????? And since SS checks are going direct deposit and everything is
on the web/atm/debit/credit cards.....WHY ARE WE WASTING BUILDINGS??????????????????????????????????

what is the foresight?????? what is the future???????? certainly NOT in a senior center, MFRH or banks......what an f'en dead end that is......


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

That is a lot of BS .. you can praise and support any business.    If you don't want to go to the Recovery Room or the Berkshire Bank   --- WHO CARES ???   no one ... quit whining and actually do something to move your community forward.

I don't know if the bank got anything from Metroplex -- if it did .. I don't have a problem with that because
that is what Metroplex is for  ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.

If you folks don't like Metroplex -- then go cry on someone else's shoulder because I couldn't care less what you naysayers have to say.

Quoted Text
WHAT MAKES ECONOMIES GROW?

The answer to this question has been clear since the days of the little-known School of Salamanca in the sixteenth century. It was popularized by Adam Smith in 1776. This was made even more clear by Austrian School economists, beginning in the 1870s.

What makes economies grow is this: (1) private ownership, (2) future-orientation, (3) capital formation through thrift, (4) technological innovation, (5) a system of profits and losses, (6) low taxation, (7) free trade at every level, ( the enforcement of contracts, (9) honest money, (10) the reduction of envy. This list can be boiled down into three phrases, all of which have been dominant in the history of the United States.

1. Live and let live.
2. Let's make a deal.
3. Mind your own business.

The American middle class has seen its progress blunted ever since 1973. There are reasons for this. (1) present-orientation, (2) capital consumption through reduced thrift, (3) government-capped profits and government-subsidized losses, (4) rising taxation (Social Security), and (5) dishonest money (no gold exchange standard after 1971).

What has saved the middle class from ruination is this: (1) private ownership, (2) technological innovation, (3) free trade, (4) the enforcement of contracts, (5) the reduction of envy.

Entrepreneurship is still alive and well in the United States. It is very easy to start a company. The USA remains the richest free trade zone on earth. Generally, "live and let live" overcomes the politics of envy. "Mind your own business" is honored in the breach, although the extension of Homeland Security is undermining this relentlessly.

So, there is a war on. It's an ideological war. The Keynesians want to reduce the extent of the second list of five. The libertarians want to increase this list and then reduce the government's restrictions on the first five.

Listen DVR, I own two businesses in Schenectady and one on Altamont Ave.  Nobody offered me Metroplex money to do WHAT I WANTED.  Why should a bank get that money when in fact they are already located on the street.  That's BS.
