It's tough all over like the rest of the counties around here. The county will have to tighten their belt and buckle down. New job development or industries would work greatly.
Tax incentives would help.
I've lived here all my life and love the county and I would like to see it succeed.
Any successful candidate in this election will have a tough job seeing us through these economic trials. With patience and good guidance we will make it through.
