Opinion Yes to uranium
The News & Record / July 02, 2009
Dear Viewpoint:I am writing to express my full support for the proposed uranium mine at Coles Hill. Let’s face it, we need jobs. We have been losing jobs for years now and the trend doesn’t seem to be changing. If we allow the mining at Coles Hill, we stand to gain hundreds of well-paid jobs along with increased property values due to increased demand and millions of tax dollars every year. Not only that, but imaging the spin-off businesses that would be created to support the mine! The benefits are enormous and we should all embrace this proposal. Sincerely, Alan Bryant, Java |
