Spot on, and those are the voters...not all the voters, but, the ones that go to town meeting and the polls, the monied up retirees with time to spare, gets their arse on the committees, and their opinions in the ears of those at Town Hall, they pull the strings of the puppett's...they will go to the meetings and the polls...they show up.
They have the time, and the dough, to get done, what they want done. They care not for local business, nor the long time residents needs or wants.
