Greensboro Conciders More Corporate Welfare

By hiring Marlene Sanford, President of TREBIC (Triad Real Estate Building Industry Coalition)  to lobby the State Legislature on issues on which TREBIC already opposes or supports will be nothing more that giving away money to TREBIC to help them lobby the State of North Carolina on their behalf.

For Greensboro City Manager Denise Turner Roth to have taken such a proposal before City Council indicates she is either quiet inept or bought and paid for by the crony developers who have long destroyed Greensboro economically. I highly recommend City Council reconsider Ms Turner Roth's employment. I'm sure her former employer, Congressman Brad Miller would find her actions to be quite troubling.

I'll never forget the first e-mail I ever got from Denise requesting I set up a meeting at the Green Bean between Congressman Miller and Greensboro's bloggers. How quickly they seem to forget when they're on their way up. This is how corruption gets its foot in the door.
