Bubba Bond Kingpin

 

From an astute Colbert Countian:

As a taxpayer and observant  Colbert County individual, I can't help but think how some of our elected officials in the little swamp towns are quick to fight everything those cities and county across the pond do - or don't do.

This latest Bru-Ha-Ha with the SEDA taxation issue isn't a single prong on the fork of many tines. Ask the average citizen WHO SEDA is or if they even know what SEDA was created to do and is now doing. SEDA gained control of the Shoals Chamber of Commerce building by bailing out a failing Chamber headed by the wife of the SEDA director Kevin Jackson. The back room story that led to the 2 broken homes that preceded their marriage is too salacious even for your blog. SEDA and Chamber board members are pretty much lifelong members as they help aid and abet the activities and expensive budget. 

As a concerned Colbert County taxpayer, I do not want Lauderdale County dictating or getting in the way of sales tax decisions that affect MY sales tax I pay among all the other HIGH TAXES AND FEES IN COLBERT COUNTY CITIES, nor do I want to tell Lauderdale County how to manage their taxes and  how to get control of waste and frivolous spending.

The statement we in Colbert County have to go to Florence to eat and shop is about as asinine as electing the lifelong politicians over here that are great at flapping their gums and making empty promises. ASK WHY THESE ELECTED OFFICIALS IN COLBERT COUNTY AREN'T GETTING US NICE RESTAURANTS AND PLACES TO SHOP. While they, led by Bubba Underwood aka Bond and Slush fund Kingpin, are quick to pull the plug on another county serving their constituents by pulling their taxes from a run-a-way party house (SEDA/CHAMBER) to put money into education and job training shows the stupidity of people in Colbert County. 

It's no wonder we are the black hole in the state of Alabama and only get leftovers and pitiful little projects that in reality are lining pockets of a select few. Let's end with, if DOGE came to this side of the river, Bubba and his little cronies would have a lot of 'splaining to do.
